I have to say I am shocked at this It never occurred to me that they didn't know that she was writing about them. It seems like such a huge betrayal of trust.

Me too - can't you enlighten us, soyabean?
or how about if we start guessing you can say yay or nay as to whether we're right or not?

It was absolutely compelling reading bit thought she was a doormat as well. felt sorry for her at times too. And I liked the way that whenever her teenagers were being hideous, she'd always remember them as adorable toddlers and wonder what the hell happened...

I could NEVER have got away with ever telling my parents to f off let alone doing it on a regular basis. My children will never get away with it either...she did seem very soft as a mum, constantly needing her kids approval.

I liked it to remind me that my teenage DS is actually an angel (!) I would be absolutely mortified if anyone realised who I was on here and told DS what I had written about him on various threads, but that's pretty unlikely. I can't understand how someone writing for a national newspaper ever thought she could hide their identities. We all need to rant about our DCs every now and then. Thankfully I write on MN and not in the Guardian!
