Margaret Downey Fan Site

Hi,
I saw this some time ago and, I too believe it not to be staged. I agree with others who have seen it to be on the fanatical side of religious belief. That said, circumstances of home life can be obscured by other affecting factors: stress.

i am a father of two teenage children (one of each) and found many times that the old adage of age usually over sees anger (or patronisation). Alas, to be tricked like this is interminable. If i let my guard down like this then, not only would I be kicking myself, but to make a mental note of this to be brought up later and allow it to pass over without a sound; an Asian trick that works wonders. Once carried through the first time, a second time rarely occurs.

That said, my kids (boy and girl), know about my IT skills, my ability to watch what they are doing, be interested whole heartedly in what they are doing - academic or otherwise and applaud them for the good they do. Sadly, the mis-trust in this house-hold (for the parents to be filmed in a staged prank) is years old.

Re-affirm your wants and your priorities in life. The rest will follow.
