	Helen just eat loads of beans, leak, bean sprouts, garlic if you get my drift. This is advice for future Saturdays. Your son once your gas releases will run for his bedroom probably earlier than usual with his eyes smarting crying for you to leave his air space. Worked on my 7 year old son tonight.

Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 175 Send Message	Caz my 20 year old daughter wasn't a problem, didn't party (well only the once and lied about it) she was a breeze really. but my son has really been sent to test me. He tries it on ever night. would love him just to say "night mum i'm off up". We mum's do a good job!!

	I used to love it when my daughter's dog (alsation X)stayed with me. She (the dog) would quite happily lay on the floor emitting suffocating fumes all evening. On the odd occasion when no-one else was around and I did the same, she would look at me as though I had done something awful- then walk out of the room!!!!! maggie

	Apparently boys love their mums more than girls do......but you can have a fantastic argument with a teenage girl LOL In fact you HAVE to have quite a few arguments with teenage girls!!
