Crying or whinging whenever my husband or I said something not PC.
But also he (my baby, not my husband) was punching himself repeatedly in the head, to the point where he couldn't latch on for sustenance and I had to restrain his arm to which he gave me a huge smile and face of relief and "how did you stop me getting punched in the head I seriously had no idea who was doing that!".
I feel like there's a metaphor or something in there.
That’s funny! I’ve determined that my son is a 80’s teenage protagonist, like Michael J. Fox in Teen Wolf. I grounded him for having his girlfriend over when I wasn’t home and explicitly told him not to. He was very contrite and helped me take care of a few things I couldn’t get around to. I “ungrounded” him and he said, “No, it’s all right—I deserved it.”
