15 things only parents say

[paganbaby]

Last week, I told my son to finish his cheeseburger if he expected to eat dessert. I then laughed at the absurdity of having to finish a delicious, juicy burger before going on to chocolate. Oh, to be a child again. I find myself saying these things countless times a day: The things that would only make sense coming from a parent. 

Turns out I'm not the only one. Here are 15 things parents on my message boards have uttered lately, much to their dismay ...

This one at our house too. Although if they roof it they aren't getting it till the next windstorm

Quoting Thelmama:

No you may not get the frisbee off the top of the house, wait until Daddy gets home and he will get it.

[Thelmama]

Please take off your coat and act like you are here to stay, not just visiting. Also sit on your bottom while eating your supper, do not hover..you are not a hover craft.

Child: Mom I'm cold.

Me: Then put on a sweater.

Child: Then I will be too hot.

do not eat the crayons, stop biting the dog, stop picking the dog up, she is not a baby, dont hit your brother/sister, stop licking the ketchup off the plate!

UNPLUG that toaster first before you try to get the stuck toast out!  Said to 12 year old holding a fork to pry out stuck toast........eeeeeeeeeek. Heart attack moment.

My Godson was about two-and-a-half and we were riding in a car with him, his parents, my husband and I. Out of absolutely nowhere my Godson asks his mother if he could bite her just once. She simply replied, "No, you may not bite be at all."
