aliamch Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 she says it's because when she does own up to things I don't shout at her(but she is still punished). I'd just like to clarify that I have been known to shout at my children,....occasionally,.....sometimes,.......most days actually, just not when they own up to any misdeeds.

Guest Wolfie Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 i am still trying to find out who put my picture up in the lounge with a bolt (it had obviously fallen down, probably during football practice (yes in my front room) and one of my little darlings couldn't find a nail!!) both children, one of whom is 15, deny all knowledge!! hope things get easier hali, mrsW.x That's made me smile...I too suffered from years of footy practice in the lounge, the hall, his bedroom.....but if I'm honest I'd love to have those days back again!

Hi Wolfie, My husband made me laugh because as he was putting a nail back in the wall and telling the children that they should not play football in the lounge it reminded me of a story our best-man told me. A long time ago my husband and our best-man used to re-enact match of the day in my in-laws front room every Sunday afternoon. The fire-place was the goal...... like father, like son is all I can say. mrsW.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gezabel Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 but if I'm honest I'd love to have those days back again! Oh don't give up hope Wolfie!! I came home from shopping on Saturday and went into the lounge to investigate the cause of raucous laughter - there sitting on separate sofas trying to look innocent whilst in fits of laugher were 2 sons (the 29 and 25 versions) and from behind his back the eldest produced a mini rugby ball 'We were just having a throw about and heard you come in and we simultaneously sat on a sofa it was a real deja vue moment' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
