Can I get support for pretty much anything on Mumsnet if I say I'm sorry?

I was having a horrible day yesterday and finally I snapped and killed my family with a trowel. Once they were dead I fried them in a light tempura batter and served them to my NCT group when they came round for coffee.

I feel really bad. I totally expect to be on the receiving end of competitive non judging be flamed.

Feedmeseymour will an NCT group eat things which aren't served on Cath Kidston crockery? Perhaps in the provinces? How quaint.

Well indeed! I was a little worried for you there but feel reassured now. Carry on and chin up old girl! Things can only get better.

But sometimes toxic families do need to be dealt with in this way IYSWIM. I think you are to be applauded for setting such a firm boundary. Everyone knows where they stand now and that can only be for the batter.

DialMforMother · 26/10/2010 18:36

Wayoftheworld I said I felt bad. But I was having a really awful day. I had just learned that our hamster has gingivitis and it was all just getting too much for me. May God and Mumsnet forgive me.

Isn't it dangerous to feed toxic families to other people?

We should all be pouncing on the slightest misdemeanor and ripping sub standard parents to shreads. Call SS! There's a mum here who has mentally scarred her child for life by not being a robot! Bad day? Stressed out? No excuse! We expect stepford wives here, anything less is just lazy.

blah blah, you are only human, blahblahlblah sense of entitlement, blah blah blah toxic blah, narcissistic blahblah

FeedMeSeymour · 26/10/2010 18:46

I'm actually interested in the trowel. I do find gardening implements to be quite shoddy these days and I've struggled to find one that can deal with my heavy clay based soil. One that can stand up to a family massacre sounds well made to me.

Where did you buy it OP and would you recommend it?

CerealOffender · 26/10/2010 18:47

have you read '10 delicious ways to detox your toxic family' by s. tate thobvious?

scottishmummy · 26/10/2010 18:48

more shocked at your piss poor humour.but dont want to negatively judge,maybe you have a condition that inhibits humour

CerealOffender · 26/10/2010 18:49

sm - it must be exhausting being you

IWouldNotCouldNotWithAGoat · 26/10/2010 18:50

Competitive non-judging, so true.

"I was concerned today to see a woman thrashing her toddler with a bicycle pump".

"How dare you judge this woman by one small snapshot of her life? Loads of toddlers get thrashed with TWO bicycle pumps. How is any business of yours?"

Hedgeblunder · 26/10/2010 18:51

Yes- but there are rules-

DO NOT-
feed children anything with additives ever
give fizzy drinks
go to primark
go to asda
have an opinion about private vs state
tell anyone off for smacking children

DO-
judge children and their parents based on their clothing/footwear.
Shop at waitrose (but only cos it's closest)
smack your children
only spend 50p at christmas on all three children
lose all brain capacity atthe thought of attending a weddig that hasn't been engineered to suit your family (and only your family)

Glad we cleared that up

Feedmeseymour our local National Trust property has a garden centre. A marvellous resource for the 14 little ones (before they were nibbles).
