Awkward moments with your parents...

Elba101 · 03-08-2011 08:39PM #1

A while back I was sitting down with my family for dinner, all good. My sister, 19 at the time, had a new bf of about 2 months and my mam was asking about him. Another older sister said something about her bf having a nice body to which sister 1 says he has a lovely six pack. And my mam says in a shocked voice "How do you know if he has a nice body?"

No one said anything, but it was a pretty awakward dinner after that...

So AHers, any awkward/embarrassing moments with your parents??

That story didn't sound so disappointing in my head

In the sitting room happy as Larry watching a film, just the three of us.

Until a raunchy sex scene comes on slap bang in the middle of it, a truly awkward moment every time.

Going to get your first bra with your mam was pretty embarrassing. It was a horrible beige one to.

Watching some random film, Gabriel Byrne was a solider in France as I remember
Cool, I'll watch this with the parents, I like a good war film

Except he shacked up with some local girl and the two of them stripped off and headed to the bedroom
Awkward and not the sort of film I was expecting

My friend calls this the Bambi effect, just because she is sure that if she were to sit watching Bambi with her parents, in the middle of it all the animals would start having it off.

The effect is worsened when you're sitting on your own watching it, and the sex scene that came out of nowhere / random person walking around naked triggers the entry of a parent. Or maybe it's vice versa.

Christmas dinner, all family sitting round the table. My older sister was spoon feeding her little kid (about 1 year old) she noticed he wasn't having any of it. My ma then spouts out "its probably just too hot, give it a little blow job there and he'll be grand" Needless to say an eery silence followed and not one of us made eye contact!

Yeah I made the mistake of watching Trainspotting with my Dad.

Me and my friend walking in on them having sex when I was a teenager.

Oooh, I feel your pain. The sex in that movie is reàlly graphic and goes on for ages! I haven't felt awkward watching a sex scene with my parents in the room for a few years, but recently I was watching the Sex Ed Show and my dad decided to watch a bit of it. Cue a line of flaccid penises on screen and some kid asking why the black guy didn't have the biggest one.

I felt very embarrassed especially since my dad already despises Channel Four programming, and this just compounded that I think.

I was on holidays on my own a few years ago (long story, spur of the moment thing). Anyway, a few days into my holiday my folks arrive on the island and they're staying in another resort, so I go along to say hi. I met them on the beach.

I should advise my parents at the time were in their mid/late 60's.

Anyhoo, we're sitting on our sunbeds having a chat when my mother has a bit of a stretch and a "wardrobe malfunction". Of course she doesn't realise her boob is hanging out while the conversation continues and because she's sitting directly opposite me, I'm getting a full view. I tried getting my dad's attention so he can tell her or fix it himself but of course he's not getting the hint, so I had to tell her myself.

Half an hour of awkward silence later, I headed back to my apartment in the hopes that the equipment in Total Recall is real.

When you say orgasm instead of organism ive done it a couple of times

FUUUUUUUU organism

starlit · 03-08-2011 09:42PM

When I was a young child say about three, just after dancing to the tune 'like a virgin by madonna' I run up to my mam and ask her what is a virgin? She says its the Holy Mary!? As if I believed her! A bit embarrassing a few years later on when I found out what a virgin was and to think I ever asked her such a question! How innocent, curious and inquisitive I was!

Alter-Ego · 03-08-2011 09:47PM

When I was really young I used to always ask my Da what was in those vending machines in mens toilets. "Bars of soap" apparently...

easyeason3 · 03-08-2011 10:20PM

Seeing my parents shift each other on New Years Eve a good many years ago. Tongues flying, the whole fcuking lot.

I just sicked up in my mouth a bit.

Solnskaya · 03-08-2011 10:21PM

my mams very fond of her cat, loves them she does. Sadly, and more sadly at family get togethers involving brothers in law and suchlike, she insists, and is oblivious to the stifled hilarity, on calling the mangy ginger wheezebox "my pussy". The amount of willpower, not to mention the sheer danger, involved in stifling a laugh when she walks into the room carrying a saucer of milk and loudly asks whether "anybody has seen my pussy??". Grown men have been known to choke on their brack at our family get togethers. And even more sadly, this is all true.:(:D:(:o we were all just waiting for someone to have the guts to say-"well, that'll be you so Da." But nobody ever did.

For some stupid reason, a long time ago, my Dad who was a big fan of the carry on VIDEOS hired out CONFESSIONS OF A WINDOW CLEANER and put it on St Stephen's Day when all the extended family were in................................hilarious thinking back on it, but at 11/12 years of age I had no idea what to do, neither did he, he didn't know whether to turn it off, or let it on and pretend he didn't notice!!

Did anyone ever offer to stroke it?

well I told you to go with your own ma, but you said mine was nicer and you wanted to see what a lad in a bra would look like. I told you before you went that she was feeling a bit off, what with me wanting a bra and all. Usually she's a nice tanned colour.

bronte · 03-08-2011 10:36PM

Oh I have another one...
Was at home last Christmas...watching TV in the living room with my brother.
Mum is on the phone to her friend who's house she is heading over to for a get together later. My mum is in her 60's. As she's ending the call to her friend she laughs and says "It'll be like a swingers party"
Brother shoots me a horrified look.
"Mum....do you know what a swingers party is?" says I
"No" says she
I explain what it is.
"Oh God save us" she says...don't think her friend knew either.
At least I fcuking hope not.

The phone rang in the middle of it and jeez, did I run for that phone!!

When me, my mom and my dad went on my laptop to look at the price of flights to London. I accidentally pressed the letter y in the address bar and about 10 youjizz videos came up. Now that was a truly awkward moment.

grohlisagod · 03-08-2011 10:44PM

Watching The Inbetweeners and one of my parents walks in. Need I say more.
Also, if I'm watching a music video which turns out to be quite raunchy and they walk in. Channel is changed ASAP!

cesc77 · 03-08-2011 10:47PM

Was doing some work in my grannies house over the last sweaty spell.
She had an ol raggedy cat who was half dead and my work caused her to venture outside for a nosy.
I came in drippin with sweat and she said "my pussy is so hot,shes panting" ??!!

Why do old people still say pussy?:(

paddydriver · 03-08-2011 10:51PM

When Ireland drew 1-1 with NI in Windsor Park to qualify for USA 94 (Who remembers Alan McLoughlin's screamer:D) I came home so p*ssed that I got up in middle of night and did a p*ss at the end of their bed! Don't ask how... drink does weird things!

Rocket19 · 03-08-2011 10:51PM

One night, my parents were in the tv room watching some Die Hard film (which my younger sister had advised them to watch). Right before the DVD, my Dad had been watching Top Gear or something on one of those 'mens' channels'.

Anyway, in our house there's sort of like glass doors between the tv room and a sort of lounge next to it. My sister and I were sitting in this room beside them, so when we noticed the credits come up on the film, my sister popped in to see if they had liked it.
The second she entered the room however, my Dad hit the standby button on the DVD player, which switched it off and straight back onto the 'men's channel'. Unfortunately, at this exact moment, on the television was some extremely hardcore looking porn which was VERY loud.

Cue my Mum going "TURN IT OFF, TURN IT OFF, TURN IT OFF" (she obviously thought this was a highly traumatic experience for a 14 year old girl), my sister standing in the middle of the room frozen in shock and my Dad breaking his sh*t laughing while he tried miserably to find the sky remote.
