So I have an obsessive DCB age 3 who comes in yesterday and sits, then proceeds to announce to everyone that I will be putting up the jumpy jump (the blow up bounce house) for them. I said, not today sweetie, it's supposed to rain this afternoon and I thought it would be a good morning for the park. He says... "BUT, MY MOM SAID YOU WOULD... SO YOU NEED TO DO IT..NOW!" My answer; Sorry, Mom was wrong, there will be no jumpy jump today. DCB pouted and whined ALL morning, "I'm telling my Mom on you". Me; Go ahead, tell your Mom we decided to go to the park instead. DCB "I don't like the park, you're a mean lady!".

What a lil' stinker...

Oh yeah you're so mean.

I don't get why some parents tell their kids that you are going to do something without ANY knowledge of what your day is going to be. Maybe to appease the child at that time, IDK. But it's annoying. Makes you the bad guy.

Have fun at the park!
