How have you ruined your pre-schoolers day today?

[Slayduggee]

DD3 dropped her biscuit on the floor in the car. I picked it up and gave it back to her. Apparently it is dirty now and I have ruined her whole day.

2 year old DS cried for 40 minutes the other day because I offered him a fish finger, he likes fish fingers.

Asking him to eat the pizza he had asked for in MnS cafe

Being very cross when he mucked around and tipped the cafe table

Changing his pants after he had a shart in them

Asking him to eat his dinner

Asking him to brush his teeth

Etc 🙄

Mine's learnt the word 'why??' He's 18 mo and only knows about 15 words, so I have fuck all idea what he's asking 'why' about and I don't know the goddamn answer! Cue lying fave down screaming

I also wouldn't let him pour water over his tea or finger paint with tomato soup

Our most memorable one this week. Daddy took the plug out of the bath, apparently mummy was supposed to do it. I was convinced she'd hurt herself when I went up to see what the screaming was about.

We also have the parcel thing

Cut her toasted tea cake in half when she wanted it whole.

I saw a firework out the window that she should have seen first. Dreadful parenting.

I asked which cup she wanted pink or green.
She chose green.
I asked if she wanted milk or water.
She chose milk.
I presented milk in a green cup.
She decided to scream like she was in the Sistine chapel for 37 fucking minutes.

I couldn't make the fish and chip shop magically reappear right next to us instead of 100 metres away.

Had to go to morrisons instead of lidl. Meltdown till he realised we could buy doughnuts from morrisons.

I removed 18mo DS's piss-filled nappy and insisted he wear a clean one. For shame, Mummy, for shame.

I ruined a perfectly good argument between my DTs about whose mummy I am by informing them that I’m mummy to both of them.

I then caused a screaming tantrum from them both because I told DS off for running away from me towards the road, then told DD off for running away in the opposite direction into a shop (luckily back to her dad). They then screamed in unison as I loaded them back in the car, moved it to a different parking space (I was apparently leaving daddy and I’m a BAD mummy) to pick up DH and load the car up.

If this is a warm up to their teenage years, I’m moving out when they turn 10.

He didn't want to walk so I carried him but he didn't want to be carried so I put him down. Up down up down until the devil meltdown because I stopped him trying to pick the pretty stinging nettles.

I made him get out of the bath because the water was cold. Proper, sobbing hysterics.

Also earlier I wouldn't let him eat a pea which he had dropped on the floor of the pub. He had pretty much a full portion of clean, edible peas in front of him.

My twins are only 20 months, but I'm already getting a foretaste.

Twin1 - screaming hysterical fit at breakfast time today. I think I put the porridge in the wrong bowl, or gave her the wrong spoon (I'm still not sure of my crime, since she can't speak).
Two 2 - furious, since I tried to help him take his jacket off by starting to pull down the zip. He wanted to do it himself.

I made the chocolate wobble cake that he asked for when I cared for him in the week. But he wanted chocolate wobble cake with chocolate buttercream and not vanilla buttercream which is what I made. I offered to get him a Duggee sticker book in recompense, he decided a Duggee and a Peppa sticker book and a proper wobble cake would suffice

@MyBabyBoyBlue “hiding walk” 🤣🤣🤣 love it!

She wanted to see a firework that was “teal” coloured , i couldn’t manage it, so meltdown 😆

I brushed 4 year ds's teeth which, according to him, means I hate him.

He's also angry because 9 doesn't come immediately after 4 and he wants to be 9 on his next birthday.

He asked for cheese on toast for lunch, I double and triple checked it was definitely cheese on toast he wanted. Presented him with said cheese on toast and he had a meltdown because he actually wanted a cheese sandwich.

I very kindly peeled a banana ..granddaughter fell to the floor in an absolute rage ..! I actually feel sorry for toddlers.

3 year old today “How about I carry my chair up the stairs?”

How about no?!

Over 20 minutes of full wailing “my chaaaaiiirr!!”

Ended instantly when some stickers appeared. Chair, what chair?

This week, I’ve made her walk on the wrong pavement, used four clips instead of three, poured some milk for my own cereal which she was saving for Daddy’s coffee, chose Chase instead of Rubble raisins and made her get a bath.

She has been distraught all week.

Oh and when we went to the supermarket I told him to wear his coat because he always gets cold when we go to the supermarket. He threw a massive wobbly, refused his coat and told me he loves being cold. Within 5 minutes of getting into the supermarket he was complaining about being cold. He then howled for the next 20 minutes around the entire supermarket. After Morrison's we went to the garden centre and I told him to put his coat on because it's always chilly there. He threw a tantrum, refused his coat and said he loves being cold. It's been a long day.

There's a photo in a frame of DH and I pre marriage and kids on holiday in Tenerife up in our living room. 3yo started crying because she wasn't in the picture and was positively distraught when I informed her she wasn't there because she wasn't born yet.

"Why you go there without me Mummy?" through big hiccupy sobs. 💔

Awww it’s been years since I’ve had toddlers and this has really made me smile. I’m now ruining my teenagers lives

I remember the ridiculous tantrums though. Often featuring cutlery or clothing 🤷🏻‍♀️

This too shall pass

Yesterday I stupidly asked DD to remove her clothes before getting in the bath.
This was so rage provoking that she then refused to unbutton her polo shirt before taking it off and just pulled it over her head so hard that it ripped the buttons off.
It was not a fun evening.
