I have just received this e-mail…and I thought all the mum’s out there would appreciate it!
THE NEXT
SURVIVOR SERIES
Six married men will be
dropped on an island
with one car and
3 kids each for
six weeks.
Each kid will play
two sports
and either take music
or dance classes.
There is no fast food.
Each man must
take care of his 3 kids;
keep his assigned
house clean,
correct all homework,
and
complete science projects,
cook, do laundry,
and pay a list of
‘pretend’ bills with
not enough money.
In addition, each man
will have to budget
in money
for groceries each
week.
Each man
must remember the
birthdays
of all their friends
and relatives,
and send cards out
on time–no Emailing.
Each man must also
take each child to a
doctor’s appointment,
a dentist appointment
and a
haircut appointment.
He must make
one unscheduled and
inconvenient visit per
child to the A & E.
He must also
make biscuits or cakes
for a social function.
Each man will be
responsible for
decorating his own
assigned house,
planting flowers outside
and keeping it presentable
at all times.
The men will only
have access to television
when the kids are asleep
and all chores are done.
The men must
shave their legs,
wear makeup daily,
adorn himself with jewellery,
wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes,
keep fingernails polished
and eyebrows groomed.
During one of the six weeks,
the men will have to endure
severe abdominal cramps,
back aches,
and have extreme,
unexplained mood swings
but never once complain
or slow down from
other duties.
They must attend
weekly school meetings,
church, and find time
at least once to spend the
afternoon at the park or
a similar setting.
They will need to
read a book to the kids
each night and in the
morning,
feed them, dress them,
brush their teeth and
comb their hair by 8:00 am.
A test will be given at the
end of the six weeks,
and each father will
be required to know
all of the following
information:
each child’s birthday,
height, weight,
shoe size, clothes size
and doctor’s name.
Also the child’s
weight at birth,
length, time of birth,
and length of labour,
each child’s favourite colour,
middle name,
favourite snack,
favourite song,
favourite drink,
favourite toy,
biggest fear and
what they want to be
when they grow up.
All the above must be completed whilst working
in either full time
(preferably) or part time
employment to assist in
the financial input for
the family.
The kids vote them off
the island
based on performance.
The last man wins only if…
he still has enough energy
to be intimate with his
spouse at a moment’s
notice.
If the last man does win,
he can play the game over
and over and over again
for the next 18-25 years
eventually earning the
right
To be called Mum!
