Career lows

There are so many odd moments in being a parent. Wearing matching newspaper hats whenever you go on the tube is one.

The possibly oddest scenario occurred earlier this week when Starbucks (2) informed me during our playing of  'doctors' that I should 'feed from this boobie and then this one, ok mummy', as she pointed to her unformed chest. 'No'. 'Why mummy?', 'just no'.

I'm not sure if it's made more or less odd by being alone with her and no one else witnessing this surrealism.

Would other mothers lent in and pretended to? Or is there a definite do not cross line there? Surely there's a line, although it might be way back before when she said 'let's play doctors, lay down'.
