Ds2, on the naughty step for doing something mean to ds1 (can't remember what). Through angry tears 'I want a new mummy and a new brother'

I actually found it funny. He was only about 3. Another day and a different mood / level of stress and that might have been different though!

ummlilia · 16/12/2016 07:50

you're only a cleaner.. (I work 2 jobs and am fine with providing for my daughter this way, but she said it as though I was beneath her contempt and it hurt)

RoastChickenDinner · 16/12/2016 07:51

"Mummy is a bawbag". Aged about 5. I blame DH. Grin

tigerdriverII · 16/12/2016 08:04

I constantly get told I'm weird by DS(14)Grin

He did ask how soon he would inherit our classic car: gave him the benefit of the doubt on that one.

Most hurtful (don't know why this stings so much but it did!) the best food ever is Ollie's mum's Tesco butternut squash soup.

When ds2 was 3 I told him I really loved him and he slapped me really hard round the face. I cried. He loves me now he's 9!

OhtoblazeswithElvira · 16/12/2016 14:28

I hate you.
You are disgusting.
Go away.
You are horrible.
You are being mean now.

5yo DD even time I say it's bedtime / bath time / whatever. It really sounds like she means it but I don't have the energy to care.

Heatherbell1978 · 16/12/2016 14:47

DS1 only 2 so fairly tame but I'm heavily pregnant at the moment and he bursts out laughing whenever he sees me naked. 'Mummy big bobo's' (bobo's are boobs) or 'Mummy big tummy' and he accentuates the 'big'.

My eldest told me last year that he hated me. That I had ruined his life by trying to take him on holiday away from his girlfriend. He was also sneaking out at night with friends and taking alcohol.
A lot of that is pretty normal for 16 year olds but was such a change from the mostly happy lad we had the years before. He ran away from home that night and went to his dads. His dad is a pot head and we have been broken up 6 years now. Dad has little involvement but according to son he was the best parent ever (as he did no parenting).
His dad wouldn't keep him and told me to get him. I refused. I told him I was fed up of having police around due to son. I was fed up of having him take his temper out on me. I was fed up with dad never doing any parenting and telling the kids I was a fat useless whore (kids were kind enough to pass that on). Son threw a temper tantrum as I put down house rules. I also told him that we would be going on holiday without him. He again hit the roof at that as he wanted to come along and cause trouble.
He came home after a week and asking nicely if he could come back. He then broke up with his girlfriend not long after. It turned out she was beating and even biting him. She stopped him seeing friends and even stopped him from opening his bedroom window when it was so hot.
He felt scared and alone and needed to hurt someone. He was pretty much in over his head.
His girlfriend has been gone a while now. He is back to the happy normal kid he was before. He gives hugs again and he's been laughing again. He has gone out with his friends again.
I know I was harsh with refusing to have him back but I couldn't work out a way to get him to talk and for him to not be agressive and angry. I think I did the right thing. He is happy again. He has as much freedom as before. He now tells us when he is going out, when he arrives safely and roughly what time he will be home. We never ask but he tells as he doesn't want to hide things. He is 17 now and things will change more as he gets older but I hope things stay calm now. We understand each other more.

"You love DD more than me", said by my DS. Sad

nobodysbabynow · 16/12/2016 15:00

Not too me but about me for a piece of school work in year 2. 'Mummy likes to tidy and is always vacuuming'. And that was it for her descriotion of me. I work full time, do sporty things, at that time I was doing postgraduate study ... but no. Vacuuming.

Cliffdiver · 16/12/2016 15:01

DD2 2 'You're smelly. I don't like smelly things'.

Guess I needed to brush my teeth Blush

Cliffdiver · 16/12/2016 15:02

Also, DD1 then aged 4 said to me in a theatrical whisper 'mummy, I love you more than daddy'. DH heard and was v upset.

HumpHumpWhale · 16/12/2016 15:13

Aged 2:
DS: "Daddy man!"
Me: "That's right, darling, Daddy's a man. And if Daddy's a man, what's mummy?"
DS: "whale in da water!"

Aged 2.5, stirring with his granny reading, when I tried to sit down "no, Mummy too fat. No room. Sit there!" Pointing to the other couch. Charming!

Also the usual "I don't love you" but nobody takes that seriously from a 3yo surely?

Outofoptions · 16/12/2016 15:34

i said to ds 2 "you are a nice boy!" when he shared with his sister,
he said "no! mean boy! I hit you!"
then hit me in the face Shock

Niloufes · 16/12/2016 15:37

"You're NOT my best friend, ANY more!"

Rixera · 16/12/2016 15:42

"eurgh, yuck!" Accompanied by repeatedly signing for stinky.
At least she has good communication skills?

Stormtreader · 16/12/2016 15:51

Just jumping in just in case to say "Piss off Daily Fail thread-stealers!"
Now we can all continue in peace :D

choccyp1g · 16/12/2016 15:56

When he was about 3:

"If you don't buy that toy dinosaur for me, when I grow up I won't marry you"

wobblyeverything · 16/12/2016 16:13

Everything is wrong because of you and right because of nana (then shut the door on my face) DD4!

keepbreathinginandout · 16/12/2016 16:37

DD (18) talking about a woman on the bus she had given up her seat for "yeah she was really old, about the same age as mum" i'm 43..the woman she described sounded about 80!

If I tell her off: "I love papa!" Doesn't go as far as to say she doesn't love me but it's the implication Sad

Emmageddon · 16/12/2016 16:55

littlemissangrypants

Been there, bought the t-shirt. My lovely boy is now 27 and working at management level, with a sound friendship group and a sweetheart for a girlfriend.

Iambubbles86 · 16/12/2016 17:01

Ds1 when dhs dad died laughed and said "now your an orphan" (he was 3 and didn't really understand, he's actually a very caring boy)

Ds2 anytime we watch party rockers insists I look just like redfoo from lmfao
