so im sittin at the supper table with my kids last nite, and i tell them to hurry and eat because they still have a room to finish cleaning (the play room.. been an ongoing battle for weeks) when my daughter 7, asks why they have to clean it.. and isay because you made the mess,and i would like it cleaned up, she asks why they have to do what i say, and i say 'because you are my children" (again an ongoing discussion with the attitude queen... lol) and she comes back with..

"well you would think we are your children but you treat us like your pets!"

to which i couldnt help but to burst into laughter.. and ask her what she ment..
she said that i always FORCE them to do their chores, and that is why i treat them like they are my pets...

what do you say to something like that...

lol..

tell them if they don't clean up like they're supposed to, you'll put them outside, like real pets. That's what my mom would say

to hell with that...there is letting them take their time, then there are the kids, such as mine, who would take all night just so they dont have to do homework or chores, etc....i give ample time to eat then its get your butt going child!
