These FOD in Thailand antics are making me die laughing! Also praying one of his gap yah shags finds us and spills the beans on missionary man and how he gave her a backpacker bracelet from the stack on his arm as a promise to keep in touch when they got home. Oh FOD, the gift that keeps on giving!I am paying to the FOD gods that one of his old beach hut shags from 2003 comes on and reveals all He’s probably a missionary man who keeps his ‘same same but different’ t-shirt on, along with his shell necklaces jangling
Yeah, it’s hard to strike a balance. I was essentially neglected as a kid, so I’m not aiming for that, but just aiming towards picking the best elements of enabling individuality, not being spoilt and entitled. I cook them fancy food (posh), but there are ZERO alternatives (working class). My husband grew up posh but rural - so they had nothing and had to work, but went to private school we’re trying to add it all up to equal not bleeping up our own kids!
I’m so sorry that your childhood was so bobbins it sounds like it’s given you everything you need to be a brilliant, balanced parent now though - I really love your approach and that’s exactly what I am aiming for.
