This ones not in public, but is was embarrassing none the less. I was at home, on the phone to DHS (Department of Human Services) about claiming medical travel expenses and was trying to shoo Muffin (3yo at the time I think) away so I could hear what they were saying - and Muffin, who was wailing and crying, cried out "Stop HITTING ME mummy!!! wahhhhhhhh". I was expecting someone to show up on my doorstep after that.
