About this deal

This is the first story in the book and I will say i was kinda grossed out by the fact that someone can have THAT much of stinky feet. Needless to say he was the man with the stinkiest stinky stink feet in the world. The cook show that his daughter participated in did remind me of "Master Chef". I Can see why she didn't want to invite her father to the finale. I wanted to PUKE when he used his TOE CHEESE as CHEESE ON THE DISH! I was disgusted by that and so were everyone in the cooking show.... so therefore the storyline was really creative but its just TO EAT TOE CHEESE for me so thats the only reason I am rating it a 3.5/5 stars I try not to think this – I work in child protective services and that means I have to find every possible way I can to reach parents to change behaviors, lifestyles, etc that threaten the safety or wellbeing of their children. Read by a star cast on Audible, it's entertaining to listen to, full of energy, though you do miss some of the visual humour and Tony Ross illustrations by accessing it in this format. I worked with a guy who’s about 5 years older than me. I was 20 at the time so he’d have been about 25. Still lived at home with his parents because mom wasn’t ready to “let him go.” He had a 9pm curfew and ALWAYS had to have permission to “go over to a friend’s house.”

The mom, daughter, and brother were all survivors of an extremely physically abusive father (mom’s ex), the children at a very young age that very clearly caused them immense trauma that manifested as mental health issues (ADHD, violent outbursts, inability to regulate emotions, several other things all piled together). I became involved years after that man was out of the picture. Read this to guarantee some amazing laughs. You will enjoy it by yourself as well as in sharing with the little ones around you. In 2012, new mum Brittany Hill was arrested for trying to sell her four-month-old baby in the classifieds section of her local newspaper. And Helen Docherty said: "THANK YOU for saying what so many of us have been wanting to say. It's always felt like sour grapes to criticise Walli*ms, but a bit of me dies every time someone says he's their favourite author. The world has enough privileged white men peddling racist/sexist/classist tropes."

My Book Notes

The boy is also the 5th child in his family. All of his siblings are sisters and the son knows that his dad kept trying until he got his boy that he could groom into a football star. That’s a lot to live up to and my mind immediately went to Todd Marinovich when I met the dad. Aside from their terrible parenting of their first child, they’ve completely destroyed their second child’s chance at a life.

Walliams has his formula, and he knows his audience. For me, this is similar to the Teachers - over the top stereotypes, lots of bodily function jokes and silly lists (not complaining - they go down a storm), moral lessons for parents whose behaviour is ridiculously outlandish. My son’s daycare class has a kid in it who’s missing an eye. He has an eyelid/lashes/etc, just was born without the tissue used to see with. He’s a completely normal looking kid, it just looks like one eye is always closed and instead of the roundness of an eyeball behind is flat since it’s missing. There’s nothing scary, or weird, or gross about him. One- David Walliams making another addition to his 'World's Worst' series after Worst Children and Worst Teachers. Pinch your nose for Peter Pong, the man with the stinkiest feet in the world… jump out of the way of Harriet Hurry, the fastest mum on two wheels… watch out for Monty Monopolize, the dad who takes all his kids’ toys… and oh no, it’s Supermum! Brandishing a toilet brush, a mop and a very bad homemade outfit…’Sure, some parents are embarrassing – but they’re NOTHING on this lot. These are ten tales of the world’s most spectacularly silly mums and deliriously daft dads.

Caitlin and I are trying to have fun, ignoring the abuse happening in the room (per their request). I talked to Timmy about it and he told me just how bad things were. They hadn’t had sex in 6 months. He was being physically abused by Crystal, she wasashing out HARD over some mental illness related problems but refused to see a therapist or submit to a facility. She was bullemic and had gotten so bad her toenails were falling out. Timmy knew the end of their relationship was inevitable, and planned on dropping her off at a facility after the vacation. He knew she wouldn’t forgive him, so he figured it would be best for both of them if he just didn’t see her after that. OK, whatever, sounds like a plan. He’s got thus handled.

Christmas Cards & Gift Wrap

In 2011, Hope Adele Askew lost her temper and pressed a hot iron to her daughter’s face – twice. The poor girl had failed to correctly pronounce a few words while reading a book. According to Mama Askew – whose point of view was definitely askew – this crime was punishable by first-degree burns.
