I quite often see women posting some daft comments made by their OH's about their children.
I remember one being "he is doing nothing wrong" while 16 yr old boy plays x box in middle of kitchen while xmas dinner is being cooked.
I wanted to share this weekends little gem.
"DSS is being very good lately, he is chatty and does as he is told".
Five minutes later OH asks DSS (age 11) to come and do the wiping up, as it's his turn. I counted OH asking DSS 8 times, this was interjected with lots of whining and whinging from DSS which continued even after the 8 asks.
Ten mins later, OH asks DSS to have his shower. This time he only asked him 7 times and physical removal of him by OH, which was turned into a fun event.
And immediately after that he asked him to pick up his clothes from the floor. This was only asked 4 times.
The irony in all this was that OH had asked DS and DSS 3 times the day before to turn off the games console and it was made quite clear to me, that he thought DS was out of order for not doing it immediately.
Sometimes you have to laugh.
