Yes, I did mention "bad form", and I stand by it.

You leave your 16 month old in clothes for 72 hours? I see you are getting them ready for the teenage years when you will have to pry their jeans off with a fish slice
I have a 12 year old who would live in the same thing for a week, yes and sleep in it too if I let him.

DS1 is on the PS3 (no school tomorrow or would be in bed by now) and he has hic-cups, I am being driven mad,

I shall DHL him over to you forthwith

My ds 15 has orn the same t-shirt since Wednesday, and probably slept in it

I have informed him that he smells and is disgusting, but just got tutted at and the rolling eye thing.

72 hours is nothing...I have given up the battle

Etiquette.

What a weirdly unpleasent thread on so many levels.

hellyberry · 02/11/2008 21:43

shurely ok if tshirt is boden??

prince - I'm sure we all know it's 'etiquette'.
Etiket is a play on words - there's a column in one of the broadsheets which refers to it as such....
I think the OP shows herself up as a real lightweight. Those of us with older kids know that 72 hours is nothing....
