Four is freaking evil.
Far worse than the namby pamby two’s.

I mean come on.. I would take a tantrum anytime over smart talk and lies.

It’s probably wrong to scream “I MADE YOU AND IF YOU GIVE ME ANY MORE LIP I’LL REPLACE YOU WITH ANOTHER WHO LOOKS JUST LIKE YOU” isn’t it?

Not that I do that.

Ever.

Firstly to the Narcissist I just wanna say 6 is even worse than 5 or 4 cos by this age they actually know stuff and are able to argue back better.
To The Queen I say to my son “I am God and I have spoken That is ALL” this usually elicits apologies and few questions about what makes me god to which I respond “Mother is the word for God on the lips and hearts of all children and seeing as I am your mother I am by default God” Now I realise that I have just made quite a few people mad at me for this but I do not apologise because each of us are entitled to our opwn beliefs and opinions and this tack works for me when at the point of absolute frustration.

I wish so much that I lived even just a smidge closer - heck, I’d settle for the same country, because then I’d bake you something special and come over with a little something to throw in the coffee and give you all the hugs you deserve.

I mean, if I make someone a grilled cheese sandwich I feel entitled to their kindness, so yeah, I can’t really even imagine…

I had C-sections so along with all that you said, I usually add the ol’ and ” I let them cut my stomach wide open to get you out!”

Of course, #1 this is kind of harsh for a 4 year old… (it works well with 8 and 9 though…lol) and #2 it invites all sorts of questions about how babies come out and that leads to other questions about how does the baby get in there in the first place… lol.

total 4 years olds don’t suck as bad and five is even better. I’ll have to keep you posted on six.

I forgot to tell you, my mother found your blog but not mine. I wrote all about it.

My mother would say things like, “Because I’m your mother and what I say goes. God is watching you….just remember — your children are gonna treat you the SAME way you treat me.”

Talk about Mom Guilt Trips, Catholic Guilt and threats to make a kid feel awful!

I feel for you! I have a three year old that tests my limits of patience on a daily basis.
