Here are the things that scare me...don't know if I will get to 25 but.....

1.Dying before I am done raising my daughter. (note: I will not be done until I am about 90 or so)
2.Having my daughter think I am a moron when she hits her teen years.
3.Realizing her kindergarten teacher and the school principal find nothing wrong with having the whole class stand and stare at a boy in class as a punishment for misbehaving. This was initiated by the teacher!
4.Drivers who think a STOP sign and a RED LIGHT are merely suggestions.
5.Anyone who doesn't use a car seat for a child.
6.Anyone who leaves a child locked in the car while they just run in and do a quick errand. Cuz really, what could possibly happen?
7.Drunk drivers!!
8.Any person 21 years or older who buys alcohol for a minor.
9.Kids on a killing spree.
10.The trend of parents killing their own children.Why don't they just kill themselves and let the innocent children live?
11.A sex offender who just moved in to the building across from me. He has more rights to privacy than we have to safety!
12.My daughter being involved with an abusive boyfriend. (According to my husband she is never going to date so maybe we don't have to worry about it afterall!)
13.Commercials on tv. Even when they are over I don't know what the heck they were trying to advertise.
14.People with no sense of humor.
15.People who THINK they have a sense of humor but they really don't.
16.Teenage girls who consistently use abortion as their form of birth control.
17.Parents who don't hug their children and say they love them every single day.
18.The fact that English is not a required language in the USA.
19.RAPE!
20.Never catching up on our bills.
21.Not being able to lose these extra pounds...and there are lots of them!
22. Disney insisting that a parent has to die in every damn animated movie to help the main character grow! I could do without that, couldn't you?
23.Mean,vindictive people.
24.Chronic whiners.
25. The fact that I could probably go on and on and on with this list!
