Yeah!!!
What else would the it be?

My teens can verify that DH and I are both EXCELLENT at it.

Referring back to an old thread, we should get the parents of the year award.
(For doing our job as parents, not for fundraising)

When I was a kid I used to tell my mother that the definition for the word mother is embarrassment. She used to crack up laughing when I said it and I was so serious.

No. It's to be avoided but sometimes mandatory

No need to deliberately plan or work at it: it’s going to happen without any effort on your part whatsoever.

True, but doing it intentionally is SO much fun.

My favorites include asking about the "interweb". Offering to do my DD's hair, it would look so nice and be so flattering in the front-poof I wore when I was in HS. Asking all the children in carpool what they learned in Mishmar this week. I can go on, but if I share my tricks I might not be THE most embarrassing mom ever.

Sorry, another smoky, but you sound more juvenile than your children.

That's ok Zaq, I'm not seeking your approval.
DH and I enjoy our sense of humor.

Of course! After a certain age it’s the only recourse that we have
I once made a fart joke while driving my daughter and her friends
She is still mortified many years after Very Happy
