Italian Mother: "Who you go out with?"

Daughter: "With a friend."

Italian Mother: "I don' know why you lefta your usband. He is sucha gooda man."

Daughter: "MA, I didn't leave him. He left me!"

Italian Mother: "You let hima leave you, and now you go out with
anybodies and nobodies."

Daughter: "MA, I do not go out with anybody. Can I bring over the kids?"

Italian Mother: "I never leava you to go out with anybody essept your father."

Daughter: "There are lots of things that you did and I don't."

Italian Mother: "What are you say?"

Daughter: "Nothing, I just want to know if I can bring the kids over tonight.."

Italian Mother: "You go anna stay the night with him? Whata your

Solly, no nubile daughter. Just collie.

She is very smart, though. You will have lots of fun. She loves playing with balls and pulling at things.roll eyes

RobertC2: Excellent!


I posted this on the EU's today. Thought I would share it here...

As you know, I went to Italy (and the U.S.) recently for 4 weeks alltold. To avoid months of guilt-riddled comments from my mother, I told everyone else but my parents. Mind you, I hadn't made the final decision until 4 weeks before due date, but still...not how I like to do things. Anyway, suddenly it was almost time for me to leave, and I still hadn't told my parents, (tho' I know my brothers would have blabbed)mainly because by now, I just felt so embarrassed that I'd left it so late.

So, one evening about a week before I was due to leave, I told them. My mother starts off being dutifully agreeable. I thought, whew, what was I worried about?. Not so. It was short lived.

It went something like this, (translated from Italian)...

Mother: That's nice that you're going to Italy, nothing wrong
with that. It's up to you.(shrugs shoulders...uh, oh!)

Me: Yes, as I said, I wasn't sure until a short time ago that I
was definitely going. I was going to postpone it as I said,
but anyway, I'm going and I'm looking forward to it.

Mother: Only one thing though...

Me: What's that?

Mother: You could have waited til Sebasstian(my son) was
'sistimate'. (usual translation = married off!).

Me: What? Wait til he gets married?

Mother: No, you could have gone after he moved into his own home.

Me: But that's not until March next year! What's the difference?

Mother: He works, and he will come home to an empty
house. No meal ready, and who will do his washing?

Me: Hey, I work, too. No-one does those things for me. He is
perfectly capable. I've just bought a brand new washing
machine. He just presses buttons. And he's nearly 24!

Mother: You are selfish! (she said this in English!)

Me: What? How am I selfish? I'm always working, and I'm the one
who normally does everything.

Mother: He works really long hours. What do you expect?

Me: I work long hours too (I'd have more time if I got off
CS!!!)Besides, when I get back, a week later he is going off
to London and Italy for nearly three weeks! I will be alone
then, and he hasn't a problem with that.

Mother: Silence. She turned her head away and looked towards the
ceiling, and then the wall, as if to say, "What's logic
got to do with this?"

I went home all wound up, and so thankful I had spared myself all these months of having to put up with all that tripe!

Anyway, now I need a strong espresso coffee or two!
What better place, than at my mother's. Better give her a call! rolling on the floor laughing
