random complaints about your kids

DS puts his boogers on his bed and nearby wall. They are like concrete when dried.

My kids are notorious about finding snacks in the kitchen, that I’ve clearly forgotten about. They will eat the whole container of Oreos and leave just one!

Kids 7 & 5 will only come ask for snacks when I’m talking on a call for work and I give them the thumbs up anything to have them go away

I tell him to go find his lollipop while I take his supplies. 10 seconds later he taps my arm and goes "why does my lollipop say Anna?" Sigh.

DD, for some inexplicable reason, needs for me to approve certain colours of things. “Look at this cake pop? See, it’s pink and white! See!” “Look at this gummy! It’s a dinosaur and it’s red”. “Look! It’s a green been and it’s long and it’s green!”

While I used to think I was clever just agreeing with her (“yes, it’s a green bean, and it’s green”), it is apparently my duty to observe said item, give full attention and eye contact, and repeat the item, colour, and a full acknowledgmen of both, along with any other important details. It is very, very weird.

Is everything okay with your food?!” He does this daily.

Oh this is classic. Tell your DS that a stranger says thank you for making her laugh out loud at 6:27 am 😁

These posts are funny and especially this one! PP, what else does your son say? And how old is he? He sounds like a riot, though I can imagine if you live with it, it might get stale.

My 7 year old is like this. "Look." "LOOK!!!" I am looking. "LOOOOOOOK"

Omg! Especially in the pool! Child, I’m looking right at you! I can not be looking at you anymore then I am right now!

This is super funny! You know you should have let him take his supplies to the back table himself though, right?

Funny! My four year old does this too. And I have to repeat the details with exactly the right amount of enthusiasm.

My ADD kiddo forgets everything. Everything. Once, he forgot to put on underwear. I sent him upstairs to takeoff his pants and put on underwear and come down. He went upstairs, took off his pants, put on another pair of pants, and forgot to put the underwear on, and came back downstairs.

Every since he was little my teen son is incapable of simply washing his hands (much less his face or brush his teeth) without getting water EVERYWHERE. Like a minor deluge. I truly don't understand the physics of it.

Okay, that's funny!
