I'm at dm's with dc. DM had a man come to cut the grass and dc were on the step watching him. When he finished, he had a little chat with them (and DM)
He asked their age and remarked that ds2 is big for his age (true)
DM said yes, and they're like chalk and cheese aren't they (also true)
He said what? They're brothers?
DM laughed and said yes.
what, like proper brothers or is one the milkman's?

Shock

DM seems to think it wasn't rude and just an observation. I think it's a horrible comment. Aibu?

but what about what happened to me?
before I got married, I had two children already, and the hair dresser, snooty so and so, asked if he was the father

Blimey there a lot of people being offended on mn today.
When I was at the dr's a few months ago I explained to him that I might be tired because I have 6 dc. He looked shocked and then asked me if they all have the same father.
I thought it was really funny. I was trying to work out if I would be less tired or more tired if I had more than one useless ex to deal with Wink
Life's too short you get constantly offended by everything
