I am sure all of you already have a list going on in your mind as soon as you read the title. This post had been lying in the draft for a long time. The longer it stayed the list grew longer - so before the list becomes a never-ending list , here are a few things you will never hear a mom say, and that's a promise.
- If everybody else is doing it I guess it's okay.
- You know, when you get down to it, I am your cleaning lady!
- Forget about your homework. There'll be plenty of time to do it later.
- If you don't stop crying, I'm going to cave and give you anything you want.
- Keep the door open! We need to air-condition the neighborhood.
- Just because you live under my roof doesn't mean you have to listen to everything I say.
- You are right. You don't have enough clothes. Here's my credit card. you'd better go shopping right away.
- Just because you were too sick to go to school today doesn't mean you can't hang out with your friends now.
- If you can't say something nice about a person, text it.
- I'm not doing this for your own good. I'm doing it because I feel like it.
- To tell the truth, I can't really tell when you're lying to me.
- When you get there, you get there. No need to call.
- You know, I really do care who started it and yes, you have my permission to end it.
- Those starving children in Ethiopia? They wouldn't eat this either.
- Don't worry about getting up on time for family breakfast time,. You were awake too late last night.
- Let's wait and see if your socks pick themselves up first.
- Actually, I am made of money.
Having said that, I do understand (well most of the times) why the above never happens but, that shouldn't stop me from trying. Now, should it?
