column ............................. Lizzie Enfield Notes from North Village It’s so late that it’s practically tomorrow, when I remember I’ve forgotten the children. It’s not such a terrible crime. They are either old enough to be forgotten about or lurking in safe places, with people who will not have forgotten about them. I’m not quite as lax as a couple of friends who are always forgetting their children and leaving them in the car or in shops. Seriously, if they were single parents they’d have no children anymore but, because there are two of them and at least one of them tends to remember that they have offspring, there’s a kind of built-in protection system. “Where’s the baby?” “I don’t know. Where is she?” “You took her to the bookshop with you.” “So I did. I must have left her there. I’ll go back and have a look!” I’m not that bad. I’m not like my own father, who so often seems to have totally forgotten that I exist. “Who is this?” he queries when I phone, and appears to be none the wiser, when I explain that it’s his middle daughter. No, I’ve just forgotten that I promised to make contact with my children at some point during the day and now the day is almost done. This isn’t really a problem, especially as far as the youngest is concerned. He’s all for hands-off parenting with an almost invisible ‘p’, as opposed to Parenting (cap ‘P’), which is how it’s generally done in the North Village. I worried out loud during the summer holidays that I hadn’t really given him much time or attention, to which he replied, “You give me freedom” and disappeared off somewhere - no idea where. When I do make an effort, it doesn’t go down well. “You’re such a pushy parent,” he complains on a Monday morning. “It’s not pushy telling you to go to school. It’s the law and I have to enforce it. I just don’t want to go to prison.” “Oh. Ok then.” This line of reasoning works, at the moment. No doubt having a jailbird mother will take on its own appeal in a couple of years time. But, for now, it’s not the authorities that are the issue; it’s my own guilt for having forgotten about them. I’m swanning about at the far end of the kingdom (that’ll be Scotland until the next referendum) and they are either looking after selves or being looked after by others. The only parenting I was required to do all day was to send a text and I’ve failed to do that. I wonder if it’s too late and decide it’s not. “Hope all ok?” I say, or something equally brief. “Yeah fine,” replies child 1. “Yup,” comes in from child 2. I look at my watch. It’s two minutes to midnight. I wonder if child 3 has already been tucked up in bed by a more Parenty parent and complained that his useless mother has not been in touch at all. Then he replies. “You’re so over-protective…” Illustration by Joda, jonydaga.weebly.com ....31....
