Do you find annoying people who go on about their own offspring repeatedly?

As soon as anyone goes on about their children my brain switches off. It’s even worse being shown a photograph.

@PaleandPolluted Agreed. Do you know a solution? I'm too timid to say something like "They'll probably turn out as boring as their mother/father", but I think it.

@alan20 yeah in my case all I do is go awww and give very little response. Lol. I was once shown a photograph of someone else’s child, even worse. What’s your stance on pets?

@PaleandPolluted You mean other peoples'? Much the same, but I have to confess : I had a terrier once and nearly broke my heart when he got killed. But then he was mine; I wouldn't keep talking to others about him.

@alan20 aww sorry.

@PaleandPolluted Thanks. What's your stance?

@alan20 still boring unless there’s something unusual about them.

@PaleandPolluted We're in accord!
