To want to take the pretty coloured ends off this?

[OhMyArsingGodInABox]

Because they (horrible parents) won't let me, even though I've put my head in my hands and sobbed and sobbed and said that I NEED to take them off.

And now that completely unreasonable woman has turned the TV off to stop me blowing myself up or some such and HE is trying to coax the wires out of my hand and even though I'm doing my best plaintive sobs they won't give in.

I've decided not to go to bed so I can run around and spend more time with them and this is how they repay me.

Aibu?

YANBU. Mine objected to me putting a tightly fitting bottle on the tap in the bathroom yesterday. It spurted in a really pretty way. I loved it. They kept saying the bathroom would be wet (durr) and the light bulb wouldn't like it (phtt).

Oh yes, I like to put the plug in and leave the taps running to make a pretty mess, they are ever so odd and screechy about it though.

Well all I wanted to do this evening was pull a tiny piece of wallpaper off the wall (ok I lie, it was a big piece), and mummy wouldn't let me. Jeez, its not as if I drew all over the floor is it? (Ok, I did do this as well)

YANBU!

I feel your pain. My mummy has the most unreasonable objections to me covering the floor in toys, books, dvds, cds etc - I like to tread on all the different textures and feel the cracks and crunches! And the floor is such a boring wooden colour without all my stuff all over it.

Also she gets unreasonably arsey when I pull her books off the shelves too - I'm only looking, showing an interest, you'd think she'd be happy but no!

YANBU.
And also, whilst we're at it, books are really tasty so why wouldn't you have a nibble every now and then?

They are, aren't they Namechange - and they make such a lovely ripppppping sound when you tear the pages! Shame mummy has a shrieking fit though, that's not a lovely sound at all. :(

Books are for throwing. Mummy says they're not but they fly really well.

OP Remind these people who is in charge. Let them plug them in the way they want. Then later when they aren't watching go and change them round. That'll larn 'em!
