Mr Tears

No, Mr Tears isn't a fearful spanker, he's a wooden cooking spoon which caused an Australian journalist 



mom to blush when her young child took it to school and innocently told the story that went with it. I just thought it was a sweet tale so here it is.

What a great story Ronnie, Mr Tears, I love it. The wooden spoon didn't really feature for me growling up. If anything Mum would just give me a quick slap on the thigh.

Hugs

Hey thanks for the early morning laugh. Kinda reminds me of a old (American) TV show called "Kids Say the Darnedest things"

Cheers

What a cute story! At least the little one didn't take it for Show and Tell, which is what I thought at first.

Hugs,
Hermione

Funny little story, Ronnie. My mom never used a wooden spoon. All she had to do was mention that she might have to talk to my father. That was enough to make me behave.

Hugs Across the Pond,

It would have been even more embarrassing if the kid told his Teacher that Dad uses it to spank Mommy!

LOL I imagine every parent of a certain age would remember something similar. And secretly, the next generation might have a story or two (politically correct or not!)
