Having just mentioned that I haven’t seen my children for days (except when they need money), this is the contact I have had so far today with my 15 year old (who stayed with his father last night so that they could watch the football together):-
“Mum am going to london with mate and am going to buy new clothes and shoes. How much money are you willing to give me? Xxx”
(I answer, telling him he needs jeans, but offering a paltry sum in his view).
“Have bought 2 pairs of jeans and jumper and thats come to 65 and am looking at shoes now. Have found some i like but they’re 54. I’ll keep lk’g”
“Can u call me pls hv found shoes”
“Gt photos 4 passport but hair looks stupid as it has to be off yr forehead – will u pay me back if I get them done again?”
“How much can i have for shoes? Love you xxxxx”
“Can i get blackberry on O2 for 35 pounds a month and i’ll pay 15 cos am in carphone warehouse tbx”
“Am buying Wonky Willy chocolate for £7 – not 4 eating but 4 cooking – it’s the best – can u pay me bac?
“It’s the best product. Pls” xxx
Bloody hell. It’s non stop.
