to be a bit embarassed that dd2 told her teacher that mummy is always...

[Northernlurker]

on Mnet

What she actually said was ' Mr X - does your wife go on mumsnet?' Mr X replied he'd never heard of Mumsnet and dd2 apparently said 'oh my mummy is always asking me to switch on the computer because she has to go on mumsnet'

I know all this because dd2's teacher greeted me at school yesterday by saying 'Ah hello Mumsnet expert' - I swear my internet life flashed before my eyes! Obviously I stressed the informative side of the website......
Dd2 really doesn't 'get' discretion......

My dd2 told her teacher that I am always in my dressing gown when she gets home from school.

Her teacher thought I worked nights - and it's not even true. I am only sometimes in my dressing gown when she gets home from school ........

LOL - honestly, if that's the worst thing she's told her teacher you're getting off lightly!!

As an aside, it's nice to see there are still some male teachers out there!

no offence NL but you are!

lol

pot kettle

lol

Carrie - i'll have you know I manage a whole day at work without mnet - it's just a quick browse in the morning with a cup of tea and then in the evening, to unwind you understand, I can quit anytime I want to.....

LOL you keep telling yourself that mate

it''s liek quicksand, you get sucked in, you want to leave, but you can't!!

perhaps your dd told him your nick/chat name?

lol

er - now the teacher will log on, see this thread and know your nickname. No more secrets from the teacher?

It's midnigt - teacher surely in bed

I hope.....

When my DD had just started school they got to stand in front of the clas for "news"

DD's news was that her dad took her to the pub on the weekend.

What he actually did was take her to the video shop attached to the end of the pub.

coralanne - bet that went down well!

Little girl and her mum were having a mini race in M&S the other day.
Mum won " I beat you , I beat you"
Little girl " Mummy you beat me!"
I smiled and said " That will sound good in nursery tomoorrow " " Mummy beat me in Marks and Sparks !""

One of my Y3s once said to me, in all earnest out of the blue, 'My daddy has a real problem with wind.' Poor chap - I could never look at him in the same way again!

not at school but my son used to have a playworker coming to the house and announced to her that "daddy had a spicy poo". My husband doesnt comment on his toileting too much around the children any more (thankgod).

Hilarious!!!
DS told his teaching that I always shout at him and that Daddy puts him in nappies and sends him to the lady around the corner when Mummy isn't home.
I only shout sometimes and DH swears he doesn't put DS in nappies and send him off to strangers on his own.

My mum recently dug out a school book I'd filled in when I was 7. I had written -
'my mummy looks after me and gives me a bath and makes my dinner'
'my daddy gives me choclit and gets sweets out of the cupboard'

We used to live opposite a pub when I was at primary school. We used to have to write in our 'News' book every Monday morning. My Mum swears that pretty much every entry I wrote 'this weekend we went to the pub' even if we hadn't!

Hi
I was horrified to go to a parents evening one night to read in my then ds about 6 years old english book that " mommy likes to drink wine at the pub and my dad fights with my brother."
What he was actually referring to was when i went out for one night to the pub with my friends and when i saw my son the next day and he asked me what i had drunk i thought double vodka and red bulls sounding sooooo wrong that i said wine, dont know why i thought that sounded better just did.
and at the time my eldest ds was into wwe and he used to play fight with his dad all the time.

I mentioned it to the teacher and she stated that having taught my other children years before and knowing us that she hadnt taken any notice when she read it, i walked about content that she hadnt taken any notice of it then began to wonder by what she meant about "Knowing us"

My ds told his yr1 teacher that I give him alcohol when he is ill. She asked me if I gave him a tot if he has a cold...(not critically, just curious- I work in school)...I told her I actually give him Calpol!

I looked through DS2s writing book at parent's evening, and every Monday "what I did at the weekend" was - "played on the Wii"

Never mind the museums, art galleries, country parks, ballets, theatres, pantomimes etc etc

DD1s stories:
On the weekend mum was at Harbourtown buying shoes so dad and I had lots of fun.

• Harbortown is a big discount outlet

I just completed a double degree - 3 years fulltime. A lot of household tasks went by the wayside but I prided myself on my carefully thought out menu plan (fish once a week, chicken twice a week, lots of fruit and vegies etc.)

DS's food diary for school:
Monday: baked beans on toast
Tuesday: baked beans on toast
Wednesday: baked beans on toast

I was furious. When I asked him about it "oh I forgot to fill it in, so I just put in anything." !!!! He couldn't understand why I was upset.

i had a friend of dd's telling me 'mummy and daddy get into fights every night'. i dobt it's true.

anything said by someone under the age of 25, about their parents, should be completely ignored.

YABU: we are on MNet to learn about stuff.

I childmind, and when DS was about 3 or so, we had a new little boy start with us - he was about 7. DS sat next to him and asked "Does your daddy also beat you up?"

DH and DS play at beating each other up which usually ends in giggles and tickles. I was very quick to reassure the new boy whose eyes had popped out of his heard that DS and his daddy only play!

kickassnagel - am betting those fights are actually rude stuff in the bedroom

angel, i meant.

in response to the OP - i spend too much time on here, and yet find myself embarrassed when i want to recount something i've read on here.
