Just a thought I had today while driving for 7 hours. There are a few words, or phrases, I would like to delete from my children's mouths: The list is short, but distinguished :) HA!
*I'm bored
*I don't know
*I don't care
I am sure there are others, but these are the few that have been thorns in my side for the day!
Blessings
I can definitely relate! I've heard my kids say, "Don't say you're bored around Mom!" That's a Forbidden Phrase - my response is usually, "Well, if you're going to be bored, you can at least be productive while you're at it. Go clean the bathroom/switch the laundry/fill-in-the-blank."
ReplyDeleteOther expressions I particularly dislike:
*That's not my job.
*I did (a particular chore) last time - it's somebody else's turn now.
I'm really enjoying your blog, Sue - keep writing!
