I swear to God, I could throttle my kids right now...
I put them to bed 40 minutes ago now and they just can not fucking shut up. They're in and out of bed, arguing, the lights are on and off...

I get the same shit every night. I feel like going out for a drive and screaming til I lose my voice.

My Ds has been similar tonight. He shouted me upstairs as he had found some bongos. Brilliant! Just what you need at bedtime.

Warning on the above post. Do not listen when delicate ears are around, there is liberal use of the F word.

Brilliant Samuel L Jackson link!!

Why have I never come across that before?!

CarpetCrawler · 12/11/2014 20:39

I love your thread title.

ToriaPumpkin · 12/11/2014 20:40

Thankfully something has to actually be wrong with the boy for him to get out of bed. The baby, however, is tonight responsible for my kitchen being filled with smoke as we've hit a sleep regression and she screamed so much, in three minutes, that she was sick so I ran, leaving a pot of soup on the stove. She's now snoring so I'm working up to putting her back down and going to clean the pan...

ReeseWithoutHerSpoon · 12/11/2014 20:44

This was me last night. Dp had let 2 yr old dd nap from 3:00 - 4:20 and then wondered why she wasn't tired at 7pm.

Or 8pm.

Or 9pm Angry

PartyFops · 12/11/2014 20:44

Is it a full moon or something, although she was down by 7.30 my 3.5 y o dd had the tantrum to top all tantrums at bedtime, the neighbours 10 doors down would have heard her, my house is now a mess where she went ballistic! I'm feeling mean and can't decide whether to leave the mess for her in the morning. Wink
