Sommerauer71: Oh I have behaved like that J, when my children were 5 and 6.
My ex husband was at his football match and said he would be home at 1pm.
5pm, arrived, Sommer, steaming in the kitchen, I fored the children up, plated up his meal, told the children
'Lets go and find Daddy'
'yes, mummy, lets'
Bundled kids, food and me into the car, drove to the pub, kids were chanting 'daddy, daddy, we love you, we want to see you'
I had them singing in the car on the way there.
Walked in, saw him surrounded by his friends, placed his meal in front of him, told him'Darling, the children were missing you so much, I jsut had to bring them to you'
Picked up my car keys kissed the children bye, told them to have a wonderful time with Daddy and marched out.
LOL - Those were the days...
I would consider that very rational...
Now if you had chucked the plate of food at him....
