Step by step insructions on how to traumatize your 14 year old son..

Step 1.. Arrange for your son to go away for a week to stay with his 14 year old best friend.

Step 2.. Forget to wash and dry his favourite t-shirt, meaning it has to go in the tumble dryer over night.

Step 3.. While bleary eyed at 6 in the morning, rumage around in said tumble dryer, fish out t-shirt, leave it inside out, quick iron and shove it in his bag.

Step 4.. Apologize to 14 year old son when he tells you with a very red face, that when he put his favourite t-shirt on while at best friends, there, neatly ironed to the front of the t-shirt, is his mothers camouflage thong..

I did wonder why it wasn't in the tumble dryer!

PMSL ............... thats so funny ............. bet his mates think you are wicked though ............ x

Ann-Marie, his mate came back to stay here with him for the week, and asked me on a packed tube did I own the thong??!!!!

Oh Bridge ............. dont you just love teenagers .............. it's so funny .......... not as bad as my 15 year old nephew who asks me how often i have Sex ............. infront of my Mum ................. lol x

Gotta love em lol...... or we'd kill em!

New addition to post

Take said son (who is 13) to first major grown up party - house warming, where average age is about 28 where mum is 39.

Decide at 2am that its time to go home but no taxi firm will take you.

Announce that you are both going to walk through pitch black village (street lights go off at 12 midnight) to get home.

Said son cries in the kitchen cause he is desperately afraid of the dark, but won;t stay at host house either!

Gorgeous 28 yr old (who mum has had eye on since sisters wedding 4 weeks ago) announces that he will walk mum and son home. Son up for it cause he likes said 28 yr old.

End of story.

I'm so sad I have no life crave attention and cant help but belittle others to make myself feel better

Or you could burst into younger persons room while yelling "I've lost my virginity again!" ... confusion and embarrassment I'd hope would ensue
