[Insignificance]

Chocolate and spectacularly brutal serial killer in Marc Paul Alain Dutroux - Although he was a nonce as well.

Ah. I thought it was the swiss who made chocolate... thanks for claryfying.

Oh and of course Belgium is a very handy place for the UK, France and Germany to settle our differences.

Dreamy Uncle 🤢

Dunno about Ireland, but in England it's actually common for aunt & uncle to be used for close friends of your parents.

I had three aunts growing up who I only realised when I was older weren't actual relations. Two of my mates kids all call me Uncle Jon, & my kids call them Uncle, & their wives, Auntie, as well.

Yeah, all my close neighbours on the housing estate I came from were aunt and uncle as well as close family friends of my parents. Weirdly, my parents were friends with my wife's parents for a while in our childhood, and so my missus still calls my mum auntie. Which does generate a kissing' cousins vibe.

I don't think it is weird.

Kids get introduced to loads of people & adults, & can't understand the complex relationships between them.

Giving some close friends the moniker of uncle or aunt is a very simple way of enabling the child to give those friends their trust, & ensuring they're not going to automatically give the same level of trust to other people in your life whom you haven't given that moniker to, without having to explain the reasons why in any detail they don't need.

It's also a pretty nice way of telling those you love that they are special. Funnily enough though, the only ones my kid calls aunty or uncle, who aren't his aunty or uncle, are the ones that genuinely show an interest.

I make all the people in my cellar call me uncle.

There are some blood relatives too, I think.

 

[manwithnoname]

Except that most sexual assault on kids come from close family friends or relatives so fuck that idea too.

Trust nobody kids and don’t do drugs

For clarity, are you advocating for zero drug tolerance because you personally did do drugs, or didn't do drugs?

This will certainly have an effect on my conclusions and subsequent advice to my own children.

Pat doesn't do drugs or drink. At all.

Dreamy is 100% clean, so buy your little ones a bag of grass for their thirteenth birthday and step it up from there.

 

[Halmeister]

Fucking hell, this flies right in the face of anyone advocating a straight-edged, clean lifestyle. I'm off to plough my 2 year old with a gallon of vodka and pump him full of heroin.
