The 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Son
So, I finally joined Facebook. I feel so hip and modern. I found my son on there. I thought, hmmm, what things will I learn about my son that he doesn't want me to know? I stumbled across this picture.
The caption on the photo was "The most important woman in my life right now, my mom. Love ya."
I was forclempt.
A friend later told me about the following post on another mother's blog and I had to repost it. It was in response to the article by a father called, "The 8 simple rules for marrying my daughter"
The 8 Simple Rules for Dating/Marrying my Son.
Rule 1 (How to Dress) Please don't dress like a hoochie mama when you go on a date with my son. Dear father of the girl...instead of sitting there talking about how you are going to be cleaning your gun and question my son about his intentions...why not look at your daughter, see how she is dressed and then question her about her intentions?
Rule 2 (Calling in a Substitution) There are MANY MANY other girls your age, don't fool yourself, you CAN be replaced! And, if you are replaced, have some self respect, don't pull the "I am going to kill myself act"...you know what happens? Believe it or not, you don't get back together; instead your prize is...a free 3 night stay in the psycho ward!
Rule 3(Game Over)..Just cause you two broke up, this DOES NOT give you license to change my sons character. YOUR friends don't need to be texting, calling or emailing my son to tell him what you think. Believe it or not...it doesn't matter what they think!
Rule 4 (Money,Money,Money) When dating my son, please be considerate of his finances when ordering off a menu, he worked hard for that steak and that tank of gas to drive you there!
Rule 5 (The Reality Check) When you marry my son, REMEMBER-It takes TIME to acquire the things your parents have. He will treat you like a queen, but it will take several years before you move into that dream castle. Keep you expectations in check in the early years for Valentine and Christmas gifts.
Rule 6 (What to call me) You may wonder what to call me. Unlike the article that demands the "boy" call your dad "SIR"..We would prefer you call us mom, not only to our face...but also behind our backs.
Rule 7 (Contract Agreements) The vows you will be taking commit you to be faithful to my son "til death do you part". Be advised, if you break that vow, I will immediately help expedite the second part of the contract!
Rule 8 (Friend or Foe) We can be you BEST ally...Or you worst nightmare...The choice is yours...Oh and PS I can take your dad...
