-'Don't be so ridiculous,' said her dad. 'Usually they've got more sense.'
-'Do you hate us?' said her mum suddenly. 'Is that what this is about?'
-'And what makes you think you want a baby? You couldn't look after a goldfish.'
-'Jesus Christ,' he said. 'Don't you people ever learn anything?'
-My mum didn't say anything. She just looked at me for a long time, and then it was like her face was a piece of paper that someone screwing up. There werde these folds and lines and creases everywhere, in places where there was never usually anything....She stood there crying for a while...'Of all the things you could do. All the ways you could hurt me.'
that´s a typical reaction by parents: You couldn´t look after a goldfish (or something like that).
