Explaining

It just doesn’t
no, you can’t wear it.
because it’s not appropriate for church
&

Screaming:
You brought WHAT in the house?
OH MY GOD! Is that turtle poop?
and
“Who put the dog in the dishwasher!?”
Teaching
it is not okay to play with Raw Eggs and tree “poop”!
It is especially not okay to play with raw eggs and tree “poop” on my car!

Nutrition:
You can’t eat green apples for lunch.

Ewww.
No, I don’t need to know what color it is.
Safety:
Be Careful.
Watch out!
Look both ways.
Slow Down!
I told you not to do that.
Didn’t I tell you not to do that?

Responsibility:
I told you to wear shoes.
Where are your shoes?
What do you mean you lost your shoes?
Again!?
Go find your shoes.
Look for them again. Well, look harder.
That’s it! I’m not buying you anymore shoes!
You can go barefoot until you’re 40.
Where is the last place you saw them?
Setting limits:
Girls! It’s 2 o’clock in the morning!
Go to sleep.

Seriously.
No more talking.
No more Giggling.
Stop giggling at me!
