Weary Parent Group Writing Project and Contest

by char on June 18th, 2007

Weary Parent Group Writing Project and Contest So, I was the lucky winner of the $24.95 cash prize in Kate’s Babylune group writing project/contest last week. How cool was that? I have decided to keep the fun going and instead of buying something I don’t really need with that $24.95, Weary Parent is going to have a contest of its own! I shared this idea with Kate and guess what? She had won that same $24.95 in a previous contest, too. I think its a sign. We need to keep this prize money moving through cyberspace.

Contest Theme

We were all tweens/teens at some point in the past and even though our parents were convinced that we heard NOTHING of the good advice they gave us, we really did listen - at least a little bit. I want to know what advice your parents or another influential adult gave you as a teen that you took to heart. It can be funny. It can be serious. It can be a list, a story, a confession - be creative! Just keep it tasteful - this is a family-oriented site. (I reserve the right to not post entries that are inappropriate)

Contest Rules/Details

In order to participate, make your post anytime between now and 11:59 p.m. Thursday, June 21, 2007. Include an small intro to your post with a link to this post and to be sure I don’t miss anyone, don’t forget to leave a comment, too. I will post entries in batches for the day and will post the final list on Friday. Once all the final entries are posted, I will have one of my tweens draw a random entry out of a hat.

The winning entry will win a $24.95 Amazon gift certificate or $24.95 in cash via PayPal. Why $24.95? That is the magic number that allows us to reward you with out you incurring any tax penalties. The prize is yours to do with as you please.
