It
is funny thing about
mothers and fathers.
Even when
their own
child is
the most disgusting little blister
you could ever imagine,
they still think that he or she
is wonderful.
Some parents go further.
They become so blinded by adoration
they manage to convince themselves
their child has qualities of
genius.
Well, there is nothing very wrong with
all this.
It's the way of the world.
It is only when the parents being
telling us about the brilliance
of their own
revolting off-springs,
that we start
shouting
"Bring us a basin!
We're
going to be sick."
Occasionally one comes
across parents who
take the opposite line,
who show no interest at all
in their children, and
these of course
are far worse than the
doting ones.
NotMine.
