The other day when I was asked for the third time in a week, if my girls were twins… ummm over a year apart… I started to think about all the funny to outright rude things I have been asked in the last couple years when out with my litter (“litter” originally an auto correct, but if the shoe fits).
“Of course, these aren’t all your children, are they?”
“You are a very brave woman”
“Are you a daycare group?”
“You must be busy” … on the daily along with another crowd fav “you have your hands full”
“You should get a TV for your bedroom”
“Your husband is getting a vasectomy right??”
“Please tell me you’re done”
“I would rather die than have kids this close in age”
And the winner “didn’t your husband even let you have a nap after the last one?”
Heard any good ones?

I have often said the wrong thing at the wrong time, and been sorry for it afterward. In the area of social psychology, as interesting as I find it, I am noticing that I am my own best subject. Sometimes just changing feet is the best I can do.
Please forgive that I don’t know what the other side of my brain is doing.
Keep it up, Katherine, your candidness is humorous and insightful.

Yes, I think most people are guilty of saying the wrong thing… I have done it many times too. At least we can have some fun with it! Right?
