KLAXON: To be furious with myself for telling my son

[Sistersweet]

That he had a huge great big blackhead in his ear. I spent all day working out how to get at it and had decided on hot compresses followed by a firm squeeze using two ear buds. He even let me take a photo of it. It was the first thing he asked me to look at as he got in the car from school and then he did something terrible, he started trying to squeeze it HIMSELF, and it burst EVERYWHERE and I didn't even get a chance to even touch it. My day is ruined, I tell you, ruined.

Yuck your title needs a

YADNBU! what a let down!

You do realise you have to post the picture now!

I so wish I could but he has grabbed my phone and deleted it from recent deleted but it was truly fabulous. I'm gutted

Gross. I did not need to read that. A warning on this thread is a must.

Ground him, take away his phone/iPad/tv and make him do his own washing for a month. He won't do it again.

Stay silent and keep em peeled, they sometimes return even bigger and better.

Id pack him up and ship him off.

My teen boy knows to leave the gooduns for me or face an earbashing and a night of me sulking.

I'm sorry I forgot the warnings but punishments are definitely in order. May MN could add a warning to the title

There really should be a warning on a thread like this. Not everyone likes disgusting things. Maybe MN could have a klaxon area where all likeminded people could gather?

Where in the world goes to school today?

You are right, I should have put a warning. I apologise

Aye all the grossness in 1 dark and grimy corner of mumsnet

A-ha! Is this that Sporn thing again?

vile. And a little weird imagining poking away at your kid like that...?
I must be missing g something?

Where in the world goes to school today?

Lots of schools in Hertfordshire.

I'd be telling him to pack his bags.

Can you work out how to undelete the pic?

Ah now this might might not be the end, when my DD attempts to get her own blackheads she doesn't do it right, doesn't get them right out and they come back BIGGER and BETTER just bide your time OP!

And Manchester

I second Hertfordshire....strange holidays here this year!

If you're lucky it might be a recurring one, now, is this possible. An investigation is needed.

Rosedog I live in hope, he's still laughing at the fact that I'm so completely gutted

Yup, in Manchester the kids are in school. We have family in Scotland and their kids are in school this week too

I'm in Scotland my kids are still in school this week.
