DS's dad won't let him join the choir

DS is in the school choir and wants to audition for the church choir. His father however says he can't possibly do so as he will develop a side mouth. AIBU in saying this should be DS's choice as 11 years old?

shit

Brilliant chaotic - now what's wrong with your 11 year old ending up looking like that - he's gorgeous Grin

its where the mouth stretches to the side. If it gets really bad it can develop into airbrow. I must admit I would feel guilty if DS developed these conditions as his dad would blame me and it would be another case of "I told you so"

airbrow ?

this thread is getting more bizarre Hmm

carpwidow · 22/08/2011 23:51

What on earth is airbrow? I am learning so much these days...

carpwidow · 22/08/2011 23:52

Someone google an image please.... I dare not even attempt it

< goes off to google airbrow >
I agree with AF - anyone who'd try and make their boy feel bad about joining a choir is a twat. The world needs more choir members Smile.

It never harmed Aled Jones, did it?

Why is he so against your son doing well?

Side mouth and air brow.
Crikey.

WhatsWrongWithYou · 22/08/2011 23:55

Only thing I can find is an airbrushed eyebrow - can't see how that relates to singing!

AnyFucker · 22/08/2011 23:55

is your ds's dad in actual fact using ridiculous euphemisms to insinuate that choir-singing will turn your wee lad into a poofter or summat ? Hmm

carpwidow · 22/08/2011 23:55

I knew it.... seems like a simple thread about church choirs and I am about to be violated ... AGAIN...

festi · 22/08/2011 23:56
