to think that having 8 DC by 3 different fathers may well have a detrimental impact on the DCs?

Especially as the first two fathers are not in the picture anymore so the 3rd husband is bringing up someone else's 6 DC and then a further 2 have been added to the household Hmm.

The mother is effectively a single parent anyway as the latest DH is away a lot in the military. The oldest 3 are in boarding school though so there is only 5 DC full time at home. This is a middle class family btw not a family of 'benefit scroungers'. The mother states that 'her kids have a decent dad and will all be fine'. AIBU in thinking that it's terrible?

Lovely singing doe.

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:40

That's enough Rhonda?

Are you for real? Playground rules no?

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:41

Ooo I think I may need to go and read the Chat rules. I haven't done that yet, thanks for the reminder Rhonda. Rhonda Jean is a lovely name, my sister is Doreen Jean, mind you it rhymes so I did used to tease her saying it sounded a bit silly. Oh well all water under the bridge now dearies!

rhondajean · 25/01/2013 19:41

No not playground rules. MNHQ rules.

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:41

Not playground rules Hils chat rules, I'm over for a look now over a jammie dodger

Moominsarescary · 25/01/2013 19:43

I'm a bully? Your having a fucking laugh.

You talk about other people's parenting, tell people to fuck off and call them idiots, yet it's everyone else?

You should get a grip

rhondajean · 25/01/2013 19:43

Thank you doe [bgrin]

I hope you enjoy your [bbiscuit] ( love the biscuit with the bunnit!)

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:44

Sorry to nitpick Rhonda but we were all wrong they're actually called the Talk Guidelines, very posh

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:44

Thank you Rhonda, its so nice to see a fellow sensible person on Mum's net. Moomin Language!

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:45

I would welcome a review,

Is it not poor form to start bringing children in to play as per Moomin?

Is this for real, or just we don't like what you say? you argued against us and we will tell the teacher?

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:46

I don't think theres a teacher here is there?

LittleMissStupid · 25/01/2013 19:46

to be fair, she does only have one father to her dc

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:47

Again, Moomins,

I would welcome the opportunity to debate with you but you have failed to offer anything worth commenting on.

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:47

what does DC stand for, is it District of Columbia?

rhondajean · 25/01/2013 19:48

[bblush]

Talk Guidelines. Sorry I must remember that. Thanks doe.

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:48

LittleMiss,

Could that be due to carefull life choices?

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:48

Hils you have failed to inform me whether you are a man or a woman and you ignored me on the other thread, I think these are far more pressing issues

rhondajean · 25/01/2013 19:48

Dear child(ren)

Moominsarescary · 25/01/2013 19:49

This whole thread is about people's children, how many assumptions have you made about the children Of people who have multiple fathers.

I hope you don't act like this in rl, hardly a good role model telling people to fuck off

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:49

Thank you dear so informative

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:50

Language Moomin!

rhondajean · 25/01/2013 19:51

This whole thread feels very bizarre...

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:53

Moomin,

The thread is indeed about mothers with multiple children with multiple fathers,

would you like me to speculate on how you behave in 'real life'?

Again, you have failed to contribute anything worthwhile to this thread.

HillaryClitoris · 25/01/2013 19:54

Callmedoe,

Why would I have to inform you of my gender?

I fail to see how that is relevant.

Callmedoe · 25/01/2013 19:55

Hilary you have failed to contribute anything useful to this thread, you haven't told me whether you are male or female or not, or whether I can refer to use as Hils and you ignored me on the other thread! Really you are just as bad as Moomin with her fing and blinding, the only sensible one here is Rhonda, the rest of you should be ashamed of yourselves!
