"You can't have anything from the TV"...

[Twiglett]

.. at the moment the house is filled by the sound of 3.9 year old DS during ad breaks

Him "can I have that?"

Me: "No"

Him "can I have that?"

Me: "No"

Him: Silence (due to obvious girl's toy like Barbie's shopping mall .. WTF?? )

Him "can I have that?"

Me: "No"

Him "oh you always say that.."

Me: "so stop asking You can't have anything from the TV"

It's actually quite amusing now .. his demanding voice is trailing off into an exceptionally cute plaintively quiet request

Will it work???

My 3 -year old does want that lovely Barbie shopping mall too...

i will just make one statement...rainbow art set..what a load of shite...never again. doing ok cus im sticking to uk style...no nasty adverts to confuse poor children. he he

oh please tell me about the rainbow art set - my dd really really wants this!

Ah, this is why I worship at the altar of Cbeebies....

hear, hear aloha, it's even worth putting up with perky tits whatsherface on zingalong to be ad-free

Aha its evolved

Mummy can I have that

No

Ahh just the one

No

Can I have it when I'm ten

No

Oh you always say NO

.. he's right I do

dont bother with it enid! its not half as big as it looks and how they do all those brilliant patterns i dont know...ds's just look like a mixed up splodge (and hes 7).

I just say 'yeah alright then'....or 'one day'
then he forgets about it , and never gets it anyway. Works so far.
