Do you have a funny parenting fail ? Something you feel bad or embarrassed about?
My mum once took us kids shopping, I was about 7. She liked the gardening section which bored me silly. So I told her I was going to the toy section to look at toys. I was looking and playing with some toys whenI got hungry. I went to the garden section to hurry her up, and she was gone. I looked around the store but couldn't find her. After looking around for a while, i went to the service desk to ask them to page her but she didn't respond. After a while mum came running to the desk. She explained she had taken the kids home and thought i was with them. She didn't realise i had been left behind until she noticed my lunch had gone uneaten - She was home for almost 2 hours! She never let any of us go wandering alone in a store again!
