genuinely acceptable reasons for logging off from MN

[PrincessGoodLife]

yes, we all have housework, DC, DHs, jobs, and RLs to get back to but today my DS has come up with the best persuasive reason for me to get off the computer:

he wants broccoli

And has been asking me for half an hour so I really can't ignore his healthy pleas any longer. It's not as if this is normal behaviour from him!

What good reasons have your dc come up with to get you off MN?

Wonder if that would work to get my dc's eating stuff they don't normallyMay have to try it

Needing her bum wiped is a good one.

There is never an acceptable reason for logging off. Even those in labour know to take the laptop!

@ broccoli!

DD was whinging for something or other earlier and I had been ignoring her (actually working rather than MN ) - turned and told her I was sorry and I was a cr*p mummy... probably shouldn't have used that exact wording... she told me that I wasn't, I was a good mummy

I grinned lots, hugged her, told her I loved her... then continued what I was doing

Lol dd4 has just tried to get me off the computer by saying she hasn't had a turn yet
I said ok dear in a minute, she waits a minute then finds something else to do

Sorted!

Ds1 is yelling at me in 9 month old baby language but Sponge bob has just come on and thats shut him up

and he had second hepings.....

but it's ok because after he finished he asked for a lollypop. So he is back to normal now.

After all that, I expect I will get called for a bum wipe soon enough though too, Carm...
