Child comes in to critique your 174,000 Dean/Castiel WIP you left on a jump drive he borrowed.

So I guess you're not going to ask him to tell you again so you can actually pay attention this time? Or ask him to write it up and e-mail it to you for future consultation, so you don't have to admit to having blanked out while he was talking to you?

It can get worse. Years ago, my 16 year old daughter broke up with a boyfriend. He IM'd her and asked her if she masturbated. She was furious and came down to tell me and then said "I do of course, but it's none of his business". I love my daughter. I made certain she got on birth control as soon as she became close to sexual activity. I told her if she needed birth control or if BC failed we would do whatever she decided. I'm glad she has a satisfying sex life. We live together because she has student loans and a job that doesn't pay that much and her current (non-douchey) boyfriend sleeps over all the time (he lives out of town). ButI NEVER wanted to HEAR about the particulars, however. But there I was, being supportive and telling her how rude the ex was while a small part of my brain was shouting TMI, TMI!!

Having an open and honest relationship with your kids is a GOOD thing. Sometimes you just wish you had access to an amnesia drug.
