AIBU?

AIBU From the POV of a year old

Prompted by my 5 year old having a meltdown because I wouldn't let her have sweets at bed time. Said sweets were given to her by a Birthday child at school today, but she forgot about them until bed time.
Apparently I am BVU not to let her have them.

Mini santa, I find farting really helps get my mummy moving. Might work for you too?

Farting is my answer to everything. Can't fart now though, I need to go outside again

Mini righty, my mummy didn't want me to wave the big stick I found in the garden throughout the house either. She also didn't want me to drink out the dog bowl. I got a big no AND a look, oh well, I'll just wait until the fool's back has turned. Love that dog bowl water. So fresh. So lovely.

Love evennarrowerdog, age 2

So pleased to have found this. Mummy is ill and went to sleep in the spare room last night and Daddy very unreasonably tried to feed me with a bottle when I woke up screaming after a lovely refreshing 45 minutes of sleep. In fact he tried to feed me with three different types of bottles, and tried expressed milk and different sorts of formula, all of which I have previously happily hoovered but obviously are now DISGUSTING. When Mummy finally reappeared I was eventually able to get some decent food and sleep but only as long as she was cuddling me. When she very unreasonably passed me to Daddy I woke up again and was naturally very cross. Now I'd quite like a bottle as Mummy's boobs are defective due to her unreasonably timed illness, but Daddy has gone to work and Mummy says she's too ill to get out of bed, and anyway Daddy has used all the clean bottles. She just keeps trying to give me boob instead. And cuddling me. My parents are evil and VVVU.
Help.
Love baby bean.

Aww baby bean, I'm sure you will have them properly trained soon. In the meantime sleep is actually quite nice.
I hope your Mummy is feeling better Flowers

My Mum is unreasonable for not having her boobs out on display all the time so that I can grab them and put in my mouth when I want.

Also all other women are unreasonable for not also having milk for me!

My 21mth old thinks I am unreasonable because I put a finger light on his finger after he asked me to. Cue massive tantrum

What is it with cats and babies? It's like they are mystically attracted to each other, and inevitably one gets its hair yanked out and the other gets bitten. I'm not saying which. But it totally gets on my tits. Neither the 7mth old DC(hild) nor 7yr old DC(at) seem to care about me having to calm them both down fifteen times a day. As soon as I turn my back, they're at it again. Confused

Tell me about it, moxon! Pointless cat could easily sit on a chair, out of reach of Pointlessbaby (that sounds like a terrible thing to call DD but you know what I mean!) but he keeps going up to look at her then she tries to grab him and he walks off and she crawls after him. They both think it's totally unreasonable if I try to separate them. Pesky cat!

My mummy is so unreasonable! First she read the bedtime story that I chose, but after she finished I decided I'd rather have the one with the lion RAHHHHHH! But she said it was bedtime and put me to bed, despite me protesting. My bed still has those silly cot sides on and no matter how hard I pull I can't take them off and get out. So now I'm having to tell the lion story to myself RAAHHHHHHH!

My mummy is BU and won't let me have my own iPhone.
I think it's totally neglectful. How am I going to sing 'et it oh' without YouTube?

Mummy says I'm being unreasonable for tantruming when she refused to let me bite and then spit out any more of her apple. Yes, I know I don't like apple, but the next piece might taste of strawberries or blueberries (nice fruit unlike nasty apple) and how will I know if I don't try it? Anyway, mummy shouldn't be eating things I don't like, as she has to share all food with me.

Have you seen the one where they try and give you a piece of plastic shite? I was disgusted. It doesn't even have a swipe screen. I ask you!

Shite is my new favourite word. I learnt it from my daddy on Saturday. It makes mummy go a very strange colour when I say it. I have been experimenting loudly with this. In Marks and Spencers she went a lovely pink colour but in church she was bright red Grin

AIBU to think my auntie is a mean spoilsport.

I was quite happily exploring the cat flap with my fingers and mean old auntie pulled me away so I grabbed a nice colourful pair of scissors and she took those off me. It's not fair that grown ups get to play with scissors and all I get is the contents of the toy box.

I can beat you all! Last night I was given ten minutes to choose the car I wanted to take to bed. Ten measly minutes in which to select a toy car to sleep with for the night. And I was only reminded 14 times. When the ten minutes were up and I was still staring into space with no car selected my cruel parents put me to bed without one despite my protestations.

Further training on correct procedures is clearly required here. That and perhaps some patience on their part?

From an hour ago:
AIBU to think that even though I love my Granny I don't have to go to sleep for her? She loves me very much and always enjoys watching me run around like a loon play with my toys until Mummy comes home from a rare night out..
Also AIBU to rugby tackle Mummy when she walks through the door and insist that she cuddles me until I fall asleep because I missed her?

I was out for 2 hours....

My mummy is beyond unreasonable. Why can't she understand that the ONLY places I like to sit are high up places, like the coffee table, the top of the stairs, the dining table, and precariously balanced on the chest of drawers? She keeps barricading everything fun and insists that my newfound climbing skills are thwarted at every turn.

Also, her hair seems to be turning grey.

Love, MonkeyChild 2

AIBU to think that cat food should not be just for the cat? It tastes better than some of the stuff mummy tries to get me to eat.

My mummy is being VU not allowing me to use her as a bed Angry I don't want to sleep in my cot, I don't want to be cuddled, I want her to lay down so I can curl up on her back like a cat. Why is that so difficult to understand Hmm

And no doubt she will make me eat my toast instead of her toast for breakfast. I despair.
