Too late to have them adopted off?

My son has been banned from watching it by school (doing it for GCSE), i’d love to see some of the exam answers quoting from it… Marley & Marley… ooohh

My child refuses to be amused by Blackadder's Christmas Carol. Where did I go wrong?

My kids wouldn’t engage with The Muppet Christmas Carol until they were doing A Christmas Carol for their GCSEs and it suddenly became a primary source 😬

My 12 year old daughter refuses to have any interest in anything Star Wars. The universe can be cruel like that sometimes.

They will not because they refuse, or they will not because it is your determination. The reason I'm asking is that my response to this depends very much on an intention I can't work out from the context 😀

They are frightened by the muppets. They have been since they were a tiny toddler. But they’re 7 now; I had assumed it would pass.

I loved the muppets, but there was always something deeply chilling about Uncle Deadly’s performances

I had to sit through Paddington bear with three children who were terrified when he was shot with sleeping darts. For context, the kindergarten class in front were cool with it.

They were 7, 6 and 4. It's a thing 😀

I’ve a son who’s a Terminator 2 denier.
I just don’t have the words.

My child refused to go to the cinema with me to watch Paddington 3. Even when I promised pick n mix sweets.

hannahfearn.bsky.social•100 days ago

This is terrible. Can we ask for a refund 😂

Luckily her brother watches sport and Blackadder with me. So at least it's easy when someone asks if I have a favourite child...
