LOL ... a couple of nights ago, we had planned to get a takeaway dinner, and DW and I wanted KFC. Well, up pipes Molly and announces that she wants McDonalds.
After a period of negotiation, we finally manage to compromise - Molly will have her nuggets from KFC, but she really wants her chippies from McDonalds.
At this point, DW picks up the phone, pretends to ring Mr McDonald, and then announces to Molly sadly that McDonalds is all out of chips!
I hereby nominate my DW for the first position on the Parenting Wall of Shame!
Go on, share your stories - what have you done to try and escape the inexorable logic of your children?
My children are convinced that the shelves around the checkout are full of yucky cat food. Which sometimes leads to some funny looks when my children see someone with a Mars-Bar etc and start screaming simultaneously, eewww yuckies, loook cat foood. It nearly got nasty about a month ago when a slummy-mummy thought that Yasin was saying ewww yucky about her daughter not the confectionary in her hand.
Matilda was caught in a vicious screaming cycle.... almost an hour of screaming for every reason. I said, If you keep screaming, DoCS will come and take you away from me & that would make me very sad. Well.... its grown from then. If the phone rings while she's having a tantrum, she will stop immediately & say "I'm sorry!!!" I asked her why today and she said "Was it the police on the phone going to take me away?"
