Every other generation of parents could just say they ‘didn’t know’. That’s what our parents do. Drank wine while you were breast-feeding? ‘Didn’t know’. Let us eat cinnamon buns for breakfast? ‘Didn’t know’. Put us in the back seat without a seat belt? Took just a little bit of LSD while you were pregnant? ‘Please, we didn’t k-n-o-w. It was the seventies, you know. LSD wasn’t dangerous back then!’
