The Top 10 Silliest Things I’ve Said to My Little Ones

You know, ever since I became a parent, I’ve found myself saying some of the most absurd things. It’s like you turn into a walking contradiction, spewing out ridiculous questions and nonsensical statements. Sometimes, I’ll say something and then think, “What was I even talking about?” Here are a few gems I’ve shared with my toddlers lately:

1. “If you don’t put on your shoes, I’m leaving without you.” Let’s be real—where on earth could I possibly go without them? The backyard? The garage? Not exactly a vacation spot.
2. “Do you want me to spank you?” Seriously, how often do kids actually say “yes” to this?
3. “If you don’t clean up that mess, you’re going straight to bed.” At two in the afternoon? I don’t think so!
4. “If you keep this up, I’ll turn this car around and we’ll go home.” This threat only comes out on days we have appointments or errands—like the doctor or the bank.
5. “You have 30 seconds to clean up those toys, or I’m throwing them all away.” Let’s be honest, tossing out all those toys is way too much work. I have zero interest in doing that.
6. “If you don’t eat, I’m not giving you any more dinner.” Yeah, that makes no sense at all.
7. “I’m going to count to three, and you better stop, or else.” Yeah, even I have no idea what “or else” means.
8. “Are you trying to make me mad?” Come on! My toddlers are just being toddlers—they’re not plotting against me.
9. “If you don’t start listening, I’m going to stop talking.” Quite the paradox, huh?
10. “If you keep playing with your food, I’m taking it away.” Honestly, if they’re not eating, they probably just aren’t hungry.

I guess I’ll need to up my game as they grow older and realize they have all the power. But for now, they’ve got 30 seconds—or else…
