our kids/my kids

[maby]

• to sometimes refer to the kids as 'my' kids rather than 'our' kids? DH seems to think so. opinions gratefully received

'tis easy, you probably do more than him for them.

hate the word kids. They are 'my' children when they are good. They are 'his' children when they have been winding me up all day .

yes i think that's why i do it - I'm home with them a lot more than he is.I also sometimes refer to the house as 'my' house, but I know a lot of women who do that.Men!

'The kids'? or
'Our kids' when he's there.

'My kids' when he's not.

'His kids' when they've made a mess.

I'm like UAM. 'My' kids when they are good and 'fgs remove your children before I hurt them' when they are bad. Also his kids when they need new school shoes

unseenacademicalmum - i might try that :)

Unseen, great minds

I like being able to say 'My son'. Am a single parent so I get all the glory. He's mine, all mine mwahaha .

Yep,they're his when i'm cross with them,
mine when they're good[hgrin]

I like being able to say "my boys" (like GTGG a single parent) - thought when talking to their dad/handing them over for him to have them/time alone they're his kids
