I had to scold Amelia yesterday.
She had written “Don’t come in my room. Because I said so.” on her bedroom door, in marker pen. Not on a piece of paper stuck to the door, but on the actual paintwork.
As I attacked the graffiti with a cloth and some white spirit, I had a right go at her about how wrong it was to do such a thing.
And then, I congratulated her on her spelling and use of punctuation.
Well, what’s the point of having kids, if you can’t mess with their heads?
How old is she? That’s pretty impressive use of an apostrophe, capital letters and full stops.
I now don’t dare go in to my 19 years old daughter’s bedroom due to the amount of rubbish on the floor. I have written on her door ‘Beware Hazardous Waste!’
Sally - She’s nearly seventeen, now. Actually, she’ll be seven in a couple of months, but she’s definitely going on seventeen!
Graham - You don’t want to go in there anyway. I’m sure that all teenage girls’ rooms contain things that men in general, and fathers especially, should never need to know about.
