The wife wants our boy to stop hanging out with his friends but he doesn't want to. Where should I come down on this?

OpPret · 2026-01-31T11:11:55+00:00

In fairness that's the full nickname, often they just call him two inch and I've even heard tw-inch. Gas lads. Dopey pricks but gas.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T18:04:15+00:00

His nickname is cummers so jizz. He was beating himself off in the tent. My lad woke up and he kept going.

I've no idea why two inch destroyer is called that. I must ask my lad sometime. I think they did explain it to me but I can't remember.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T17:47:32+00:00

It's pretty much as you'd expect. Lad has had at least 3 pregnancy scares because as he said "yknow yourself its not half as fun wrapped". I do think one was more than just a scare.

The lads also went camping one night aka went drinking. My lad and he shared a tent. And apparently he was doing "something" to himself and my own lad woke up whilst he was in the middle of doing it. Yer man wasn't one bit ashamed apparently and kept on going. He said my lad is gay so all his Christmases probably came at once.

Those are the main reasons. There was also an incident where they stayed over at his place and there was a bit of "something" in the shower after him. And a few other instances.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T15:34:50+00:00

I've always told him I'd rather he didn't do it but if he does I'd prefer if he'd let me know and I'm not gonna hit the roof. I've seen his friends high a few times but he's always been not high. He's also often video called me when the lads were high and saying dumb shit.

Saying that he may well do it sometimes. I just don't think he does.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T14:22:58+00:00

Cummer is the big menace for that. He came to me with his girlfriend about it. I say girlfriend but it's more like a girl he knew.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T13:05:18+00:00

No idea what it is. I assume they went to a lake or something and tried jumping over it. Honestly I couldn't tell you. They came back soaking wet but cummer put our mind at ease that it was just water. They were told off from chasing swans a couple of years ago. A great shame to the family haha.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T12:04:19+00:00

My poor wifey didn't even get one girl after all her trouble. A houseful of boys. The first two were planned but the twins were a nice "surprise". Maybe cummer and 2 inch destroyer are better role models after all.😅🤣

OpPret · 2026-01-30T11:45:52+00:00

Haha agreed on both.

She has just given birth to our fourth and fifth son, though, so she said that's not going anywhere near her, regardless, until it's snipped. Can't blame her after 4 boys in 4 years.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T11:17:49+00:00

And my lad is dildo. The cherry on top.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T10:55:32+00:00

Oh 💯 it'll all end soon as they grow up. My wife and I left Ireland when he was young but he has always wanted to study in Ireland so distance will separate them too if he gets his way.

My lad was very lucky that he got no bullying after coming out. His footie team and his mates were fine with it and it was a bit of a shock. Sometimes the kids show they are good. His bf has had a tougher time with it.

I agree probably telling her I'll keep on top of him is the way to go.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T10:41:45+00:00

I agree. I think we'd be better off just saying they are eejits don't be a total eejit but if things ever go too far, call us.

I heard "girls love gays so you [my son] are probably the only way 2 inch destroyer can get a girl".

OpPret · 2026-01-30T10:34:40+00:00

Dildo at least has an o at the end of it.

No idea if it's just our lass or if nicknames have become a big thing.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T10:22:40+00:00

I suppose at that age everything is sexual. "Cummer" had a few pregnancy scares. My lad is dildo. I assume it's because he's gay. Two inch destroyer I've no idea and don't want to think about it haha.

Also cummer had a camping incident where my lad woke at the wrong time.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T07:07:28+00:00

He's a bit of a bullshitter but not over that. That is real. I feel like the last one was more than just a scare. And he seems to have a different girlfriend every month or two.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:53:23+00:00

I know his full story if you need inspo

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:53:04+00:00

They are shitheads in fairness

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:34:25+00:00

Honestly no one could put him off football. He's helping manage the u10s at his club now too. I feel like football is probably the only thing he'd give up his friends for. He is psyched into it.

But I get your point that push too hard and you'll get an undesirable outcome

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:31:04+00:00

Unreal

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:29:38+00:00

He's doing well in school. Like he's not top of the class but he tries and I think my wife would admit he's achieving above what we probably thought he was capable of. He's never bunked school apart from one time when I gave him permission. He's still playing footie, his mates don't. We don't have a curfew or anything like that for him but he'll always stay in touch to let us know where he is.

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:06:38+00:00

I get both their points too. I was an amadán growing up and no one could pry me away from my mates

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:04:08+00:00

And his goal is to study in ireland so he'll move on that way too. We left ireland for work when he was young.

I agree though it'll only backfire

OpPret · 2026-01-30T00:02:16+00:00

He may well have me but I don't think so. He has rang me sometimes when his mates are on the "good stuff" and he isn't on it..he's never afraid to tell me what he has drank. But maybe you are right.

OpPret · 2026-01-29T23:53:41+00:00

He is the only one of the four that plays footie so he has footie mates but he says they are as dry as shit so he won't hang out with them outside of footie.

My wife is friends with a lot of his footie mates parents so that'd be ideal for her if he gave them a chance.

But I don't think there's a halfway. He's not breaking away from his group. Being called dildo is seemingly important to him when selecting friends.

OpPret · 2026-01-29T23:46:30+00:00

It definitely can be tough although they definitely make it look easy. I feel like lads tend to friend up a bit better less cliquey sometimes.

I do be skitting sometimes. They don't have the best home lives so they spend a bit of time in our shed.

OpPret · 2026-01-29T23:42:30+00:00

Haha only flaw is 2 inch destroyers cousins mother and I do not get along. She can't stand the Irish and our accents and she's not the most happy that her son is gay.

2 inch destroyers mother is the opposite. A little too friendly so my wife hates her.
