It's okay to have that person you call when you get a little lonely or have had too much to drink (or both). But your kid doesn't need to meet them. Don't fool yourself - those feelings you're feeling are hormones, not "this is my future, this is my soul mate". That's fine. Really. All that puritanical nonsense is just that - nonsense. Sometimes we need what we need, when we need it. But what our kids don't need is to meet our late-night friend. We don't have to use our children to justify our actions. If the day comes that booty turns into love, then by all means figure out a way for Junior to adjust.But seriously, what's the likelihood of that happening? Until it does, have fun, be safe and lose the guilt!
If either of these people look like your booty call then you're robbing the cradle and might be in the R. Kelly category! ;) I vote for posting an age appropriate picture for a "single mom with a son heading off to middle school" and her aging blog readers...or maybe the heading should read...
ReplyDelete"7. Don't Introduce Your Booty Call To Your Mom" ??! :)
