To tell you my DS is a model for Boden?

[daydrinker]

He's been picked, they like him and his pictures will be in the catalogue.

AIBU to be thrilled?

I'm so excited!

My boy has made it. Am I the highlight of middle class yet?

Disclaimer; never get to keep the clothes.

Do they pay much?

Aw, that’s lovely! Congrats

Cute! Would totally expect clothes.

Making your child work is surely working class? He should count himself lucky he’s a model not s chimney sweep.

I'd be more impressed if you told me he was doing well academically but if his value to you rests on his appearance and your ability to make money from him then well done.

;)

YADNBU! Congratulations, you should be thrilled! X

Disclaimer; never get to keep the clothes.

That's a disgrace. Mamas and papas let you keep the clothes!

Thank you!

Pay is the standard booking fee DS gets from the agency. Boden don't even do the extra chaperone fee, tight eh?

( or they used to 15 yrs ago anyway but maybe siince austerity...)

Cornish beach or Scottish Highlands?

Congratulations. You must be very proud?

I'd be more impressed if you told me he was doing well academically but if his value to you rests on his appearance and your ability to make money from him then well done

He's a baby that's not yet mobile

KC Chelsea, London.

Apparently they use just back drops for bean scenes now anyway

@Ps4hell the OP is pleased that her son has been picked to do this. Being a model and doing well academically aren’t mutually exclusive. There’s no reason why the OP’s son won’t do well academically.

Well done to your DS, OP. Make sure you keep the pictures from a catalogue/print them off and keep them! It will be a lovely memory.

Wow @Ps4hell I wish we could all be more like you

Well done!!
Ps4hell hoping you’re joking...

Oh you were being sarky. Phew!

Ps4hell but it's ok to value children on academic excellence which may be complete fluke and not due to anything they've done.

I love mumsnet but the last few days there have been so many judgy people on here the OP is having a big of a light hearted anonymous boast.

Ps4hell has indicated she's joking, as far as I can see.

Ps4hell

Don't knock it till you have tried it. Both dd and ds have done modelling, acting etc as children and they had a blast. They also have a nice little wedge of money if they need it in the future.
A good way towards a deposit on their first home.

The world doesn't revolve around academia.

daydrinker he will have a fantastic time.

Congrats - hope it's an enjoyable experience - you don't get the clothes though - come on Johnny!!

Awwww don’t knock the OP. But I hope you’ll be more Mrs Radcliffe than Mrs Culken.

@SecretIsland 'quite the cunt' make me spray coffee!!! Brilliant 👌

Congratulations OP.

PS is surely only making a joke as seen by their smily face.
