What's the most embarrassing thing your parents ever did to you?

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

When I was a little kid my mom would send me to bed with socks tied in my hair in a futile attempt to curl my stick-straight, fine hair. Inevitably someone would come over in the evening before I went to bed and I had to suffer through them seeing me with socks in my hair. How I survived this humiliation I'll never know!

1. Holy Crap! Thats hilarious!

So many, which to choose? Ok, how about the time my mother told my best friend that I wet the bed till I was 14. Not my fault I had bladder ISSUES!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. when i was little , my

teacher used to beat the hell out of me everyday and send me to do groceries for her because I was kind a way ahead of class, (by the way I was an indigenous and the teacher a colonizer

another horrible memory, My mother used to go for weeks at the time on trip and in her absence my big sister undertook every day ,to splash me with the hoses in the back yard, even in winter because she thought this would prevent me from wetting my bed I was 6 year old . I never even voice any complaint, no cry nothing why? I don't know I need no less than Freud

4. In front of all my kindergarten classmates and their parents

My father spanked me and screamed at me what a conceited brat I was, on parents night, because when they were looking at class drawings and complimenting mine I said all the other ones were dumb.

Not that polite, I admit, but jeez, I was just a little kid. Very traumatic. One of many incidents of that nature when I was little, unfortunately. Boy was I glad when I got too old to spank.

5. I was about 3 and my mom pulled my dress up and panties down..

so everyone at the party could see the awful burn scars on my butt (I fell on a floor heater after running nekkid out of my grandma's bathroom) I was so embarrassed.

I also had to go topless (I was about 7 or 8 then - no breasts yet) on a road trip after my sister leaned up from the back seat and barfed all over my top. I was mortified and of course I thought everyone was looking! I about died when I looked up at a truck driver who whistled at me while we were stopped at a red light! LOL.. I kick that guys ass now if he did that, but I doubt I'll be driving around topless any time soon. :evilgrin:

7. One day my mom and I were driving down the street and she

realized we were passing a boy's house I had had a crush on. He and some other boys were out front playing. We were in our Bronco, windows rolled down. My mom started popping the clutch, causing the car to lurch, violently, my head whipped back and forth. Then she started screaming - in her best southern accent, "Well, my word, Kimmy! I just don't know how to drive this fool thang!"

The boys stood staring, mouths hanging open. It was embarrassing, but it was funny, too.

8. 8th grade, my mom picked me up early because I was sick

I think I was nauseas or something. I don't remember. She was wearing an African Mu Mu dress, cowboy boots, and a towel on her head. As we left, the two best looking boys in the class saw us. I couldn't make this up. Oh, and I got in big trouble because I told her it embarrassed me too. From that day on, I promised myself, I'd be a much cooler mom.

9. LOL...

that's FUNNY


reminds me of my brother in laws sister who was too lazy to change clothes in the morning when she took the kids to school. Well, naturally the inevitable occured and she had a little fender bender right in front of the school. She had to get out of the car to exchange info in a nightie with boobs hanging down, old house shoes etc.. Her kids will never let her forget that day

11. Where do you want me to start???

[NewHampster]

13. Left the bedroom door unlocked

I was six. Strolled in in the middle of the night and proceeded to ask my Dad why he was sleeping on top of Mommy.

They sent me back to bed and it took me a whole bunch of years before I knew what had happened.

15. My mom gave me a book after an incident like that

Even worse for me, it was her boyfriend and they were making noise.
Soon after, she got me a book to read entitled "Where did I Come from?" That explained it.

14. In all honesty

My parents haven't done anything to really embarrass me. They're good people

[NewHampster]

16. Actually the Really Really Mostest embarrassy

My 80 something folks making noise while doing it in my guest room a few years ago.

No shit. I was proud of them but wished they'd keep it down 'cause the kids might hear.

Dad would have been 81 or 2 and Mom 78.

17. My mom curled my hair every night in those sponge rollers

and everyday I wore my hair Shirley Temple style to school. Man, kids can be mean, they would pull my hair all day long just to watch my hair bounce.

When I was a baby mom would tape down my ears, she was afraid that I would grow up with ears that stuck way out. I wonder what other people thought when they saw that.

My dad would embarrass us by telling the corniest jokes imaginable. He can tell one right after another.
