WowvWillow you is all growned up now, I think you should have a bath whenever you want ot even not at all!

If you're poorly mommy has to cuddle you lots and sit you on their lap. Its the law. Tell her she's naughty and if she's naughty again she can't watch her telly. Also try the kiss kiss like I told funny

Actually I AM bigger than my mum so she could sit on my lap (well for a few minutes!) I can pick her up too. Could I put her outside and lock the door so I can play the xbox and pretend I didnt hear her?

But she is a very naughty mum at times, I dont know what I did to deserve her, she used to be so nice to me Sad now she just does things to annoy me and make my life hell.

Kiss Kiss??? Bleughghghg

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 16:16

Do you stop liking kiss kiss when you're older? I looooove kissing mommy with slobber and tongue!!!!!
I dont think you ougt to lock her out. If it isn't nice for a puppy, it isn't nice for a mommy

Willow I think you and you're momma need a cuddle

OP posts:
Willow2016 · 03/02/2017 16:29

I would but I am tooooooooo busy on the xbox with my mate shooting bad guys.

But I will later promise

Momma - no you dont get to stop having kisses and cuddles when your growed up as mums often give you /demand cuddles and kisses on a regular basis, she just doesnt understand that I am waayyy too sophisticated for all that stuff now... Hmm

She tells me that without regular kisses and cuddles mummys will explode Shock they need cuddles to keep all the 'excitement' of being a mum inside. Do you think that this is really true? Would my mum lie to me?

CigarsofthePharoahs · 03/02/2017 17:29

Well I like giving Mummy a big kiss on the lips. Its best if I've got a cold at the time, all the extra mucus makes it nice.
She's very unreasonable. Keeps badgering me to take naps, then insists I wake up! Why?? And why do we have to make an effort to take the bigger one to this place called Ghule, when we only have to go out again later to get him back. Why bother? I hate going in the buggy, but Mummy says I have to as the only time the bigger one was late for Ghule was when I walked. Well, it's not my fault that there are so many interesting things to look at on the way!!
Oh don't get me started on food! Chicken nuggets, fruit winders and beans. That's what I like so why do you keep trying to make me eat this boiled green stuff? Yuckity yuckity yuck yuck. It's not good for me, it's just yuck.
Now she wants me to do my actual wee in the actual potty. Hell no woman! I have nappies, I shall do all my stuff in my nappies. I'd like to keep it there too, but she keeps insisting on changing me after I do a poo.
And why isn't the TV on Paw Patrol? Oh it's the bigger ones turn, is it? Then I shall scream "I WAAAAAANT PAWSEROOOOOOOOLLLLLLL" until I get it.

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 18:19

I dont think mommas can lie about kisses and hugs

Ooh no my momma steals my warm wee and stinky poo too!!! Willow do they ever stop stealing your poo? You're so old and wise!

Willow2016 · 03/02/2017 18:22

My mum doesnt come anywhere near me when I am having a poo!

She passes me a big stick through the door and says "Deal with it"!!!!! Cant think why Confused

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 19:38

Wow you must be so old

Aibu to be cross with my mummy for putting me on the naughty step?

All I did was decorate the sofa with a little bottle of pretty paint. Mummy said it was for her nails, not the sofa, but I think it looks really nice. I am five and some of my paintings already look like Jackson Pollock's so I think I could be a very famous artist when I'm older. Then she'll be sorry for putting me on the naughty step because the sofa would be worth millions by then, or it would be if she hadn't scrubbed it all off!

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 19:58

Dude you totally could have exhibitioner it for trillions! Your momma is deffo BU.

Aibu to only poo in a clean nappy? I like to wait til momma's changes my wee nappy and then stink out the house

Talking about poo poo, AIBU for wanted to see / touch it? It is mine after all! Mummy changed my poopy bum nappy tonight and no matter how many times I asked (and I even said please!) to see / touch it she wouldn't let me and said it was too yucky! Then she got very cross (totally unreasonable) when I tried to stand up and grab it from her! Totally unfair as she ended up touching the poo poo instead as she put her hand on my leg to stop me running off - completely her fault for not cleaning me up quicker surely?! She then said something really hurtful about how if I was a real big boy (which I totally am) I would do my poo poos in the toilet instead! Like - seriously?!

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 20:16

Wow dude she touched your poo but you can't and you even said please???? Wow

I use every potty and sometimes even the hoylet but not for poo poos that's just gross. My mummy says I have to use the potty for a poo poo but I think a nappy or my knickers is much more hygienic and she should just accept that's how i roll

MommaGee · 03/02/2017 20:57

Eww you don't wanntvput your poo in a pot!

I'm 3 1/4 and at tea time I tell DM that im hungry, then decide after a couple of bites I don't want to eat my tea because I want to play with toys that I have been playing with all day, or just generally move around. It's not like I don't go back to my food but DM acts like i should sit and eat it in one go with no intermission? She also seems to think it's unreasonable to decide part way through tea that I would prefer a different meal or to go straight to pudding Hmm

Another thing is when she makes me go to bed, she seems to think I'm BU by summoning her for more cuddles and kisses or to talk to her so I don't have to go to sleep straight away. It's the same if i wake in the middle of the night and have decided I have had enough sleep so do the same then.

Any tips on how to sort DM out so she stops BU?

MommaGee · 04/02/2017 10:58

pipsqueak she IBU if she doesn't cuddle you every time you demand. Didn't she read the job descriptipn? Unlimed cuddles on sand 24/7! O suggest you refer her to the JD and Terms and Conditions of employment. Remind her if she doesn't comply you will grow up to be a surly teenager on purpose!

Also see upthread - all meals should be biscuit's or include chocolate

Grandad was BVU today. He wouldn't let me fed myself porridge and soup today. I mean I'm nearly a year old. I only want to use my hands to eat it and then put it in my hair...my dsis thought it was funny.

MommaGee · 04/02/2017 16:11

In a bit of a dilemma over here, help!

I love telling DM all the new words I learn. She seems so happy with every new thing, and it's nice to see how smiley she is when I do it. But it's never bloody good enough.

I can say all these new words, but I wish I hadn't bothered. Because every time we get a visitor, DM gets all excited and claps towards me like some sort of demented seal, and says to repeat the words I've been telling her, like I'm her pet parrot!

So I don't indulge her, and instead I just watch her desperately hoping I verify her claims about me, but she looking gradually more baffled why I've gone quiet, after saying it to her 87 times between 6am and 8am.

AIBU to do this?

MommaGee · 04/02/2017 20:25

Not at all Benadryl. Learn to say "I not your performing monkey"
Momma does it all the time cos i like to do Wind The Bobbin Up for her. Nu uh not on demand. Nu uh.
