The OP made me laugh out loud. Just yesterday, I had this conversation with daughter 2 (now aged 30), who said 'I came home, annoyed with this teacher whom I hated anyway, I just wanted to vent, and YOU WENT AND PHONED HIM WITHOUT ASKING ME, YOU JUST DID IT, HOW COULD YOU?!'
My memory of the event is that she was really upset, and we did discuss whether I should talk to this teacher or not.
Of course I am the one suffering from memory loss, right??
In the end I just laughed and said, luckily it is a long time ago now...
Makes me wonder when and how often I unfairly blamed my parents for things they did (or didn't) do!
