So we've heard what your mum says, but what do YOU repeat to your DC like a stuck record?

[MarineIguana]

Because with me it's

"DS sit on your chair properly please or you'll fall off"
"Sit on your chair properly."
"Sit down properly. On your bum. Now. Sit down please or you will fall off."

DS:

And repeat...

I'm boring myself!

That. Is. ENOUGH!!

you're not going out with wet hair!

could you please put something on! (dd in Tshirt in January)

please get off the computer!

Mind your head

"get your hands out your pants!!"

or

"leave your bits alone!!!"

DS is most definatly a typical male!

"Will you switch the light off. It's like Blackpool illuminations in here"

Stop doing that to her
Get off her
Leave her alone

(I have 3 DDs so applies to anything any of them do)

Put your plate in a dishwasher

Put your socks on (repeated at least 8 times at increasing volume before leaving for school).

Have you done a poo today? (He has issues, I don't really want to have to ask this.)

"I'm not going to tell you again" x 4

"Honestly!"

"Put your shoes on please" x 6

"No feet on the baby"

Please stop calling me a 'puttock' (I have no idea what it means but I'm sure its a put down..)

Mummy said NO.

Cue giggling.

Because I said so!

Could you please just take some more care with things?!

"No, you are not sleeping in my bed.
No, you are not sleeping on my floor.
No, i am not sleeping in your bed.
No, you are not sleeping on your floor.
Get back into your bed now!
I said now and i mean now!"

Repeated constantly betweem 7pm and 10pm this evening.

Normally:
"What did i just say?"
"No i don't want to look. Will you just put it down." "I said down and not in your pocket. Take it out now"

Boys are truely disgusting!

Stay with me
Come here
Put it down
Stop touching that
Come on!
Sit down. Sit down with your bottom on the chair nd your legs under the table. Sit down.

We Do NOT HaaaaaYah!

Oh, and "Will you PLEASE watch the tone of your voice?!"

if you don't stay with me and hold on to the pushchair, you are definately gonna get kidnapped!

-Be careful!
-What have I told you about that?
-Be good
-Do I have to tell you again?
-I'm going to count to ten
-Where are your manners?

CUT IT OUT! (seriously, I have never said or heard this phrase except between me and my mum... or now, between DS and I.)
Also, I CAN TURN THIS CAR AROUND, RIGHT NOW!
(My Mother obviously attended the cliche school of parenting!), Don't let me get started on 'The wind will change...'

• wait at the corner
• hurry up
• will you just get in the car and sit down
• why do you only listen when I shout?
• Hello? ground control to "child's name" can you hear me? Over
• Teeth?
• Shoes?
• Jumper?

-do i look like a coat rack?

LOL at rochel 4 - i am going to put that one into my repertoire!!

reading this thread through is HILARIOUS - like listening to a tape of me over the course of breakfast

Will you sit like a person rather than a monkey.
Put your shoes on.
Is it possible for you to keep your slippers on for more than 6 seconds.
I am counting to 5.
Here's the money, get out of the car and go home on the bus.
Because I am the grown up.
Sorry love, you aren't the queen.
Did your legs/arms break? (in response to carrying bags or walking)

Careful, careful, careful

How many times do I have to tell you? (I must have said this often because DS aged 2yo often repeats this back to me)

why do we always have to have a battle over getting dressed?

Are you listening to me?

Hurry UP.
We are going to be LATE.
I can't believe it's taken you this long to eat breakfast/do homework/wash hands etc ad infinitum.
Related to the hands "No-one ever died because they went to school when their hands weren't totally dry" followed by more Hurry Ups and I can't believes.

In my head silently I often say ' For fuck's sake!!' No one knows that though!.

Most of the time it is 'Why would I know where your. I touch fox jumper, fcuk jeans, necker, whatever ... are?. I've not had them'
