Embarrassing Your Parents

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Did you ever embarrass your parents when you were a child? I was thinking back today and remembered when I was in Grade 1 at school, my mother who was a nurse in our country town hospital gave me a pair of green disposable forceps/tweezers. I proudly took them to "Show and Tell" and I can remember saying "These are my snippers. My Mum got them from the hospital. I think she stole them."

My poor Mum was mortified!

I most likely have done.....but nothing is springing to mind at the mo.

My Dad used to embarass me on a regular basis........chucking me in the freezer at Bejams........wearing an afro wig and walking through Shepherds Bush market ..........the list is endless lol xx

I know HOW to embarass my dad.........make him sit in a room when a sex scene appears on the TV show/film you're watching with his 2 daughters present (both waaaaaaaaay over the age of consent) he'll squirm and blush and then bolt out of the room using the excuse that he left the garage light on.......or some such nonsense LOLOLOLOL xx
