Some Treacle and a Fudge
2. Family Days
Family days are quite a switch from the office. At work he leads an entire Wizarding population after all, but his parents are completely different matter. They don't understand the world of magic at all.
In fact, they go out of their way to ignore it and him, and he's just a son they have to present to their neighbours and friends because it would lead to too much questions and damage to the Fudge family reputation if they cut him off completely. So they tolerated him, like a great aunt who had no other family. The sort everyone hoped would die soon so that she could be out of their hair for good.
It's part of the reason he regards the muggle world with disdain. They don't understand what a great man he is, and what a world he lives in. He is only a burden they can't easily dispose of: a son in name only and nothing else.
