To celebrate the release “The Guilt Trip” on 24th January, we give you our top 5 tips on how not to embarrass your offspring, so if your kid has ever moaned at you for making them cringe or at times just gets inexplicably aggravated by you, you had better look at our list of parental  no no’s below…

How To Be Cool With Your Kid – Top 5 Tips:

1. Don’t show old photos showing them, or their friends, how cute they were when they were young or the funny ‘bowl cut’ that they used to have.

2. Don’t tell embarrassing stories about them in front of their peers – keep it to yourself that they wet themselves in the middle of a school trip and you had to come and collect them with a spare pair of undies when they were nine.

3. Don’t do public displays of affection. When you meet them at the airport and you spot them in arrivals, avoid shouting their name and showering them with kisses. It’s just not cool.

4. If your friends are round, don’t call your child into the room to introduce them and make a spectacle of them, trying to explain what it is they do for a living when you don’t really understand yourself!

5. Don’t add your child as a friend on Facebook and leave notes of motherly affection on their wall or comment on their photos for all to see.  They really won’t thank you for it.

So there you have it. Those are our top 5 tips on how to be cool with your kids. Who knows, if you stick by these rules, maybe you’ll be invited on their next road trip too…

  • the first response is fully cerorct. This is too new of a model year and the type of vehicle you are looking at is a vehicle which won’t get a lot of reviews to begin with. The buyers for this type of vehicle are not generally shoppers, these people are what they call in the business lay downs. They come in generally knowing little to no information about the car that they are interested in. They test drive one car after looking at it for five minutes walk into the box with the closer, get pounded like an SOB by the desk jockey and leave so sore and buried from that deal that the next 72 months are just going to be excruciating for them. And the best part is although it is a decent vehicle for the money, they could’ve had some really really nice cars for the same kind of money.I’m not saying this is you, because let’s face it your shopping just by asking this question, you are showing that you are interested in consumer reviews. I will tell you from personal experience, don’t trust what other consumers tell you. generally people that leave reviews are one of two things, still in the Honeymoon Stage and are so in love with their new purchase that they cannot see the forest for the trees, or, they are pissed off and full of buyers remorse. Neither of these two reviews are going to be helpful for you because they were both written with angst and with passion for their opinion, so that passion is just going to cloud and clog the information they are trying to portray for you.EDIT: to the guy above me, the hyundai santa fe is actually a great SUV, and I **** hyundai as a general. I can understand them not replacing that lady’s transaxle. A ****** flush is a very vital thing, whether or not you would concur, it is the difference between a 180K ****** and a ****** going out.And the Mariner and escape, have consecutively recieved some of the worst reliablility and safety ratings over the span of their productions.The Equinox is a good vehicle four or six cylinder, i preferred the torrent just for the appliques that it came with, poor poor pontiac. The Rogue is a lot smaller than the Sante Fe, the Morano would be it’s competitor, and, the morano is a lot more mula.
