Parents Manners

[b]I wish there was an unwritten courtesy rule that in the same conversation, Parents would learn to refrain from mentioning their own child's name no more than 3 times. After about the 7th to 8th time I mentally find myself counting..... as I am already extremely bored./b]

Is that three per kid, or just three for all of them?
Every man lives by a code:
1.Always look cool
2.Never get lost
3.If you get lost, look cool

What you really want is a time limit. It is difficult feigning interest for more than 1-2 minutes while waiting for your turn to talk about your kid.
