Adult Children Discussing Parents Prints

"Lately, I've begun to understand - and forgive - my parents."

"I think the most rewarding part of caring for elderly parents is when they call you because they don't want to bother the 9-1-1 people."

"Your wonderful daughter and I would like to become engaged in F.Y. '97, married in F.Y. '98, and if the numbers look good, start a family in F.Y. '99."

"What's that mark on your arm, Mama?"

"May we live in interesting times. And may we outlive them."

The day the cat realized it was dependent.

"You never told me your dad was so delightfully old-fashioned."

"Mom, please! I'm a married woman whose friends have been reviewed favourably by the New York Times."

PREPARING A POMEGRANATE FOR DUMMIES

'Are we broke yet?'

"Boss, I guarantee you that my intentions with your daughter are serious."

“I have to warn you - my parents are a bit old-fashioned.”

"Tell us the one about swift justice, Grandpa."

"Raymond's prospects look good, Daddy. . . He's pretty sure he's picked all six lotto numbers!"

'I should warn you about my father. He's a landscape gardener.'

"My daughter tells me you want to become a doctor."

'No hay, no grooming, no mucking out and they live in the broom cupboard!'

"You may be in love, but can you support my daughter on what a herring makes?"

First love.

'All I know is when it's the 'birds and bees' it's about sex; and when it's the 'bulls and bears' it's about money.'

"No, I want to know the meaning of never calling your mother."

"So this is the Mr. Waring who has made such a great impression on my little girl."

"If I had known how adult her place was I would have brought nicer beer."

Bob began seeing his mother, who gave him up for adoption, professionally, three times a week. It didn't help much.

'She knew we'd try to talk her-out of it.'

'It's only fair Geraldine. I had to meet your parents.'

'Well, Eddy may look a bit rough, but he's good at heart - last week, he bought stocks from a company which produces cuddly puppy toys in pink ballet dresses!'

"If it slows down, just ask my father about the murder he always swears he did not commit."

"Mom, this is Sarah, the friend I was telling you about."

'Male, 38, still living with his parents. They asked us to keep him overnight, so they could change the locks.'
