My eldest son has decided that hubby and I are too embarrassing to be proper parents.
I have no idea why he has come to this conclusion, neither do I understand why he should have told us this over dinner yesterday evening.
Upon questioning him, he tells us that we like each other too much!
Apparently, normal parents do not go round sitting on each others laps to have a cuddle while watching the television.
normal parents do not kiss each other when they see each other as they come home from work.
Normal parents do not need to have to touch each other, affectionately, you know the fingers on the arm that is resting on the sofa, the ruffle of the hair, as they pass by.
Normal parents do not cuddle in the kitchen as they are waiting for the dinner to cook
Normal parents do not talk about sex with their children as though it was the most natural thing to do (and yes if they ask questions we answer them honestly, better they know the facts rather than the fiction they get in the playground).
Normal parents do not feel the need to walk down the road holding hands
Normal parents do not people watch and make silly comments
In fact Normal parents behave sensibly, do not show up their children in public by acting like 5year olds, laughing hysterically (me) and making silly comments (him).
Normal parents are sensible. They have a room and they use it they do not have the need to have open displays of affection when their kids are around!
So there you have it. According to my soon to be 16 year old son, Hubby and I are not Normal parents, we should be locked up, and should learn how to behave accordingly. We should never show our love for each other. We should never have open displays of affection.
Oh will he will just have to live and put up with his abnormal parents, because we aren't going to stop now
