What Have Your Kids Done to Embarrass You?

11.02.2009 by Girl on Fire // 3 Comments

the-middle_lI’ve been watching a new show called The Middle on ABC.com.  The daughter, named Sue, is a mess.  The girl just isn’t very good at things.  She decides to try out for pretty much everything that comes along and fails miserably at all of it.

In one episode Sue decides to try out for Choir and much to her parents surprise, she actually scored a spot in the production.  Her parents are thrilled and all show up to support her.  They quickly learn that Sue was only a stage hand.  Sue is so excited to be up there that she forgets to do her part and the whole production literally falls apart.  She, along with her family is horribly embarrassed.

This got me thinking, what have my kids done that has embarrassed me? I really can’t think of too much that has happened.  I do remember one thing with Lauren.  She had this super long skirt that she was just in love with.  Thing is, she is super skinny and it was a bit big in the waist.  She insisted on wearing it to the store and you know…you choose your battles and this one just was not worth fighting.

So we’re walking along and she is pushing the shopping cart when I hear all this laughter.  I turn to see that the poor childs skirt was down around her ankles and the whole aisle was full of people…laughing.  I get her skirt pulled up and we move on to the next aisle.  Again, laughter…like hysterical laughter.  I glance over at Lauren expecting to see that the same thing has happened.

Well, little Miss Lauren got such a kick out of all the laughs she had received and decided to step it up a bit.  I turn to see my angel of a child with the skirt around her ankles again.  Only this time she did it to herself and also had pulled down her under britches too! So here is Lauren, prancing through the frozen food aisle, pushing the cart and shaking her naked little hiney for all to see.

Dear God,  why me?

What have your angels done to embarrass you?

I have been hired by Warner Bros to help raise awareness for The Middle.

    That show is incredibly funny! I saw last weeks episode. Funny stuff! My son is only 2yo so no embarrassing moments yet. Give him a few years.

    I haven’t watched the show yet – just the name reminds me of Malcolm in the Middle and I couldn’t stand that show. However now I’m a little curious! Geez thanks…yet another show to add to my online watching addiction 🙂

    My son has learned (not from his parents I swear!) to pass blame for his farting onto others. Like very loudly in the checkout line….”Mom, You farted!”
