1. How often do you and your partner wangle a night out?
  Night out? Come again?
  Every month or two – it's a rare occurrence these days
  Every week or so – otherwise we're crawling up the walls
 
2. A close friend or family member is babysitting. Which of the following matches your mood?
  Elated. You leg it out of the door, whooping
  Fretful (you leave detailed instructions to cover every eventuality)
  Guilty – as if you're deserting ship
 
3. You desperately need a haircut or, pretty soon, you'll be bashing into parking meters. Do you…
  Take your child and a pocketful of chocolately bribes?
  Demand to go to the hairdressers - alone?
  Allow a 'friend' to hack your hair at home while your child chomps at your ankles?
 
4. It's bedtime. Your child mistakenly believes it is bounce-on-the-sofa time. Do you…
  Nothing; it's accepted that nipper retires when he wants?
  Wearily drag out a jigsaw to calm him down?
