Drunk Parents
Watching the old man swing home from the pub and start arguing with Newsnight can be either funny, slightly unnerving or just plain terrifying. Tell us about daft things parents have done while they've been in their cups.

My Entire Childhood
My parents were obsesssed with alcohol, drinking every day.
- My mum used to walk home from the pub to her shouting "(HER FOOTBALL TEAM TILL I DIE!) at the top of her voice. She lives in a respectable area so doesn't go down well.
- My dad decided it was a good idea to max a credit card with a £15k limit on gambling.
- Getting a phone call from the police at 11:30 saying my Mum's passed out on a grass verge in the worst area in the city - can I go and pick her up. (The most recent one but was after a funeral)
- My Mum drove to the 24h Tesco, whilst intoxicated, to get more booze.
- My Mum once tried to stab herself after an arguement with my Dad (I think she was just being melodramatic). I was about four but I will always remember walking into the kitchen and dropping the knife into the sink, telling her not to stab Dad.
Yes sadly my parents had a very turbulent relationship. They stayed together for another six years after the above incident. Since splitting, they are both actually normal now and behave like adults.

Are you my daughter?
Sounds a lot like me and the ex. Loved her to bits, hated to be with her :)
