I WAS LIKE THAT,,IN DARK AGES

SO WENT AS WELL







NEVER NEVER NEVER AGAIN

My son was in Newquay last summer with a crowd of mates, doing a surfing course and enjoying himself. I kept phoning him to ask about the weather or how to do something on the computer, just to reassure myself he was ok and still around lol
In the end, he said Mum I am 25 and ok, will you stop phoning lol
Bless him, he knows I worry....

LOL blimey I wish I could have spies with my two. Whether they liked it or not lol xx

We always had the rules with daughter, when she got to the age of going down to the shops etc...

always in a group of three or more....
stick together.....
curfew times......
secret pass word.....
no mucking about.......
good behaviour.
etc. etc. some we made up as we went along or things changed

Didn't help daughter that my five sisters all lived in same area so one or other would always happen to run into her and report back or scold her if she wasn't behaving.....lol. She says that was always the worst part as she was always afraid one of her aunties would see her........pmsl

Hiya Grannie.

I come from Middlesex originally and used to go on school trips to the National History. Victoria and Albert etc all the time. I'm not worried about London at all. Just the journey really and her being gone so long !!! Without Me !!xx

God Deb I am DREADING all that !!! At the mo I can keep her home safe and she's happy with that and so am I !!!!.

The day she asks to go out down the shops without me.................... I think I'll faint !!! xx

Please dont worry.They will be very well looked after.I have been on loads of school trips helping out.Also come from London and its not as bad as you imagine. Annie

Hi Marion.

I remember before I had my girls my sister told my neice off and I thought she had been unfair to her.

I proper gave her a dressing down and did the bountiful auntie bit. Looking back I can understand why she got cross with her but I was appalled at the time !!!

Now........... she does it to me.!!! I only have to raise an eyebrow at her nieces and I get told off lol xx

LOL Muffy am sure you still would have been late.....we have an alarm system in our place and when any of the doors or windows are opened there is a beep beep beep. When we first moved in this place the beeping drove me nuts until I figured that it would signal me when daughter came in. I usually didn't sleep when she was out on a date or with mates but the minute I heard the door go beep I would sod off into a deep sleep.

See, that's what being a Mum, does to you :))

(not saying ,if your not a Mum you dont care, incase anyone is hurt)

Marion

Jeeze there's no let up is there? Now I know how my parents felt when I was late in.

I would never have been late if I had realised what they were going through.

When they went to see the girls in their Christmas plays my dad got stage fright lol x

And wait for it..Grandson goes to school next year...am I bovvered pmsl

my brother is offshore on the rig for a fortnight

my mam is past herself

and lives for his phone calls and emails

Hey, when my son went to Mexico...on honeymoon..I still B****y worried. lol

You are right it's worry worry worry. Thanks Deb xx

OMG Muffy no your not being silly but she needs to go and experience what her classmates will.

Heck when my daughter went to Mexico I was worried sick and she was 25 at the time.....lol

Mums right to worry isn't it.....

Hi Marion

My parents worry more than I do !!! And that's going some !!! lol xx

Not read all of your thread..but it get's worse.

Being Mum, never leaves you,then you got the Granny worries...then G,Granny worries etc.

Times change though,and that is, a worry.

Marion

Thanks Ann

My friend has a son in the same class and we are both basket cases about it. I know it's not just me, but I definately will be a pain in the wotsit on here on 29th trying to take my mind off it !!! xx

Muffy, nothing we will say will make you worry less, that is what Mums (And Nanas) do. But a ratio of 4 children to an adult is good and I have seen them out in gloucester all holding hands. I am sure she will have a good time. But the phone is a good idea because if it is switched on (or not I believe0 it can be tracked. Best check if she is allowed to carry it though.

During the day she is away come on here and we will all worry with you.
