    Oh for goodness sake !

    Maybe we should make a TV programme about it. Along the lines of 'Children say the funniest things'
    We could do one about 'Parents do the stupidist things'

    The trouble is people would think we were making it up !

    My 5 year old mindee turned up with Spiderman dvd this morning (the film, 12 rating). Now I'm no prude and my own 7 yr old son has this film, but I can't let mindee put it on after school in case another mindee gets nightmares or something and it will all come back on me!!! Mum is gonna think I'm a right jobsworth when I tell her at pick up time!

    I have one that turns up some mornings to walk to school with an ice lolly. He is normally covered in it before we arrive at school. I despair.

    My son had chewing gum at 3 yrs old
    He used to get ear infections all the time and our GP told us that chewing gum helps stop them,
    Have to say it helped but he only had it supervised!!
