We know that, as mums, we should all stand united, but there are times when we take delight in the fact some other poor unfortunate mum is bearing the brunt of their child's juvenile pranks, and we've managed to get off scot-free... for once.
We think that one such mum, who has given everyone in MummyPages HQ a right old belly laugh this afternoon, deserves a medal for putting up with her son Dean's constant pranks.
Featured in footage which was uploaded to YouTube and social media today, Dean Maguire's mum shows what a good sport she is as she is forced to endure something most of us can't bear - a very loud and unnecessary surprise.
Whether she's ironing, carrying children down the stairs or simply minding her own business on the couch, Dean's mum is never off the hook when it comes to her son's pranks.
We shouldn't laugh, but we can't help it. Take a bow, Dean's mum!
