All's well that end's well, sorta

Well, told the kids about me and the bf tonight....son was completely fine, and positively supportive.....

but....

daughter went completely off on one....ho hum...(always the drama queen)

Still, a bit of a chat later, and she has promised to give him the full force of her sarcastic wit and charm....basically she will metaphorically eat him alive! Which means that she has regained her sense of humour and their friendship (which has always been a good one) can continue. phew....close call but I think a save that Seaman would have been proud of....

[bujub22]

He doesn't have any kids, but I did suggest he move in by Christmas! And yes by the time I made that comment she was ready to tut at me and raise an eyebrow....a very good sign....

And no he won't be...but it was funny at the time

She is only 11...a bit young for independant living....I prefer to wait until she is at least 13!

Nice one, Sara

I remember reading you were a bit concerned about this so it's great to hear that things panned out pretty well for you and your family.

[sArA]

Cheers manker....except they have to face each other tomorrow....bf has suggested a baileys glide (her favourite erm....tipple) as a bribe...she thought that was cool....so hopeful... .

I think her biggest concern was that he is a long term friend so the idea!!!!! OMG!!!

Lifes a rollercoaster I hope it works out though.

Get her drunk on Baileys at 11?

Glad it turned out well though Sara

They are small, and she sips it nicely over the course of the evening.

I have a theory that if alcohol is not seen as a taboo, it is less likely to abused later....I am erring towards the continental approach....

Besides, she likes the taste
