My daughter's vocabulary homework:
These are really yours? Funny. I'm glad mine now stops before she says what's she's thinking.
So mommy is old and has a big ass?
Yes.
I know we butt heads on this forum, but I just wanted to say that I admire that you posted your little girl's homework, which referenced you. Yes, you post some 'way out crazy stuff' on here, but I realize you are just a regular woman trying to raise children, who has problems, as we all do. You, obviously, have a tremendous sense of humor; something I have difficulty finding, sometimes. You are an example that none of us should take this forum too seriously, and are able to laugh at yourself. Well, that's all. I just wanted to say that.
My daughter's vocabulary homework:
You're son is funny, and quite clever
You have no idea. He cracks me up more often than not! What's worse is when I am scolding him and he makes me laugh...case in point:
(My son is much taller than I am.)
One day he did or forgot to do something, I can't remember, but I was scolding him over it and in full-blown Mommy-mode. I was shaking my finger at him and being stern and everything. In mid-lecture I stopped and said, "You know, I do not like looking up at you!"
WITHOUT MISSING A BEAT my son replies,
"Is this better?" and he got on his knees.
I lost it. I could NOT stop laughing. I had to walk away. Needless to say, that ended the lecture.
My son is only 2 and I can already tell he'll be the same way...if I shake my finger at him, he does it right back "no, no, no, no". If I say "do you want a spanking" he smacks his own azz ! :shrug: what do you do then?
LMAO MINE DID THE SAME THING!
Saying no and shaking the finger only works if you have the MEAN ANGRY MOMMY LOOK to go with it. Practice it in the mirror. I am dead serious. And you need to pracice the MEAN ANGRY MOMMY VOICE.
Once you have the look and voice perfected...he won't do it back to you. Children are highly visually sensitive. (Unless their are blind and in that case, finger shaking at them is useless)
Just think of how many small children are scared of halloween masks at the STORE. You gotta look MEAN when you are scolding, it scares them and then they KNOW you are not playing.
I can recall MANY times I used the MEAN ANGRY MOMMY VOICE/LOOK and all the while I was trying my best not to start LOL! As soon as I was done scolding him, I quickly turned my back, walked away, covered my face, and died laughing. Poor kid never had a clue.
P.S. The MEAN ANGRY MOMMY VOICE/LOOK works on husbands too!! Woot a twofer! Two problems solved for the price of one!
