Heartstopper was about five and was watching the Olympic Figure Skating Singles event on television with them, when she very confidently declared: “I can do that!”

Whereupon Skinny Bitch told Heartstopper that she would encourage her and support her.

First thing tomorrow, they would take her out and buy her figure skates and she would sign her up for the Olympics.

And then she gave it no further thought beyond “Cute kid.”

About an hour later, Heartstopper came out of her room, tears streaming down her face.

In a very small voice, she said “I don’t think I can do it.”

That’s one instance of perverse parenting Skinny Bitch felt really bad about.

On a higher note, her brother Georgie went to the Canada Games with his sport.

Great new contest! Four prizes up for grabs, including an Ipod Nano. Check it out on Bloggernoob and tell him that witchypoo says hi!
