To sell all couches and just buy a single chair?

[Chloe01mum]

I mean after all the dc just ignore the other empty seats and plonk themselves right on top of me anyway.

While I'm at it I could get rid of their beds as well since no one wants to sleep in them.

Dinner plates is another one that could go, I could just put my dinner on a plate and let them dig in since my exact same dinner to them is always more appealing!

[pointless rant brought on by lack of sleep and ANY personal space ]

You need to set some boundaries. You're the parent here, do some parenting.

I could handle couch cuddling. The plate and bed would drive me up the wall.

How old are DC? Is there something you can do to boost their independence so they don't want to be so clingy?

OldLady have you checked under all the beds for your sense of humor?

Same here my children seemi to prefer my bed my meals and my knee to anything else

Mine too!! We are all wedged on to the arm chair while the sofa lies empty. Mine go to sleep in their own beds but wake up in mine.

Oh, well! I figure in another 5 years they will probably not want to go near me.

Possibly you could keep the couches and just buy a really high chair, like the ones tennis umpires have. You'd need some sort of rope ladder that you could pull up once you were up on your chair.

Ikea - that's genius

And instead of dinner plates, a trough!

I feel your pain! My mum keeps telling me that my house is too small. Even if we moved to some giant enormous mansion my children would still be round my feet all the bloody time. There are two wittering at me right now
