Daily Mail - Like most mothers Lucy Baxter wants her child to live a fully rounded life - including the experience of a physical relationship and even finding love. But her 21-year-old son Otto has Down's syndrome and has had trouble finding a partner. So she is appealing for women to come forward so Otto can 'enjoy the same experiences as other men his age'. She says she is even prepared to go so far as to pay for a prostitute for her adopted son... 'I would have no problem paying for Otto to go to Amsterdam to visit a brothel if that's what he wanted.' Otto is an aspiring actor who has appeared in local stage versions of Macbeth and The Canterbury Tales. He persuaded his mother to help him find a partner after three years without success. He says his ideal woman is television and radio presenter Fearne Cotton. He added: 'I'm on a mission to find a girlfriend. My reason is I want to have sex. I'm looking for girlfriends everywhere.' Recalling previous encounters, he added: 'There was Jackie - she was a sexy bird, she was gorgeous. She gave me four kisses. Then there was Sarah. We had a crazy snog together. It was a few months ago. I'm still waiting for her to call me back.'

I thought this story sounded familiar and I now I remember where I heard it before. It was from a Very Special Episode of "Life Goes On." The one where Mrs. Thacher takes Corky to a whorehouse and pays a Vietnamese hooker to let him do an Angry Pirate on her. That said, is it just me or is Lucy Baxter the coolest mom on Earth? I loved my sainted mom with all my heart, but she never offered to drive me to the Bunny Ranch and spring for an Around the World with a whore. Until the day that sainted woman died we couldn't sit through a tampon commercial together without mortal embarassment to both of us, never mind talking to me about sex and brothels and Cincinnati Bowties and the like. I feel bad for Otto, but the kid's doing MacBeth and Canterbury Tales and has all of Britain out pimping for him. He's got a better thing going on than I do, and I wish him all success. Hopefully that stuck up bitch Fearne Cotton will get over herself and finally give Otto what he deserves.
