Three Rules for Dating My Child

An actual conversation that took place in my house this morning, just after I’d seen the latest report on toys made in China…
Me: Kids, when you begin dating, there are three rules that will apply…
- They can’t smoke
- They can’t drink
- and they can’t play with Aqua Dots
Son T: What’s Aqua Dots?
Me: That’s not important, just make sure they don’t have or never have had them. Have a good day at school dear.
