Good morning all,

My name is Simon and I work for the television production company Talkback Thames. We are in the process of developing a non-broadcast pilot of a gameshow. As part of the show I am surveying different groups of people to find out the public's response to light-hearted and fun questions.

The question I have for dads is:

'Have you ever pretended to be asleep in the middle of the night so your partner would get up for your baby?'

That's it, a simple yes or no, I don't need any user information from anyone, just 2 clicks here:

Thank you so much for any and all of your responses,
Simon

It's been a long time since, but I don't think I ever did - I wouldn't have dared πŸ˜†

Hello!

Thanks guys, yours are the exact answers I get from every single dad facing this question, its either -
Yes! Everyone does it (dads and mums)
No, I'd never get away with it / she'd kill me!

Thank you so much for your replies, can I just ask did you put them on the poll or just give your answers here? (Just so I don't double count them)

Many Thanks,
TTSimonA

Ah, yes - I didn't vote, so you can count my reply on here as an extra vote.

.... she'd kill me!

That would have been letting me off lightly πŸ˜†

If you've gotten away with it this long, I think you might be okay.. or she could be storing it up (you really do never know)

Anyways, as I said before, many thanks for your replies, it really does mean a lot to me πŸ™‚
