When he was about 17 my son took me in hand by showing me how, both adults now, we could continue our thing together, giving me a manly hug. I wasn't too keen on initiating this kind of thing, not knowing how to walk past people in the street, let alone whether I should hug them or not. I rather liked the Englishman who said 'Mother, I'm going to die now. Could you please leave the room.'
There is no escaping family life. I imagine you will endure it with your customary lucidity. Apart from being the cook, are there any other roles you could find to hide behind? My son has taken up magic tricks, which I enjoy since I never understand how anything works.
