1. Sharing
One toddler told his mother, “Granny we will share you with our mother.”
2. Sickness
After this child was an adult he told his mother, “ Mom do you remember those times that I said I had an upset stomach and could not go to school, because I was so sick?” She replied, “Yes, what about it?” The child responded, “I did not tell the truth.” “Someone had told me they were going to beat me up, so I pretended to be sick, so I would not have to go to school.”
3. Texting
A grandmother was texting a message and her granddaughter told her other siblings,” Hey everyone granny knows how to text.”
4.Smoking
One daughter told her mother after she was grown up, “Mom I cannot tell a lie.” “When I was little, me, my siblings, and (several children in the neighborhood) which she called each of them by name, were in the basement smoking your cigarettes.” “But I did not like smoking.” She just had to share that tobacco fact. When she said, “I cannot tell a lie,” I wonder why did that revelation remind me when George Washington told his father, “I cannot tell a lie.”
5. The Family Dog
One daughter told her mother after she was grown up, “Mom do you remember you told us not to call you at work unless it was an emergency?” The mother replied, “Yes, I remember.” The daughter stated , “Well one day while you were at work, the dog was on the loose.” “He was terrorizing the neighborhood and it took us a while to catch him.” “We didn’t want to bother you at work.”
6. Absent From School
One child got up one morning and gave her mother a paper to sign. She told the mother she needed to sign it for an absence that she had. The mother replied, “You have not been absent any days that I am aware of, why should I sign it? So the child went on to school knowing the mother did not sign the slip. This same mother and child attended a social gathering at the elementary teacher’s house. The teacher mentioned to the parent to see if the parent was aware of an altercation between her child and another. Apparently, the parent knew nothing about this. So the teacher said the child had a few “choice words” for one of the other children during an altercation, after which, the child marched to the front of the class and announced, “ I will not be here tomorrow, I am going to be sick.” The parent then said to herself, “That explains why she wanted me to sign the slip the other day.” The parent thought to herself, “Been there, done that.”
7. Money
While in the store, a child asked for a toy from his parent. The parent replied, “Not today, we do not have any money.” The child responded, “Why don’t you just right on that paper that you right on when we go through the store line?” The child was referring to writing a check.

10. Naps
One child complained, “Why do I have to take naps?” The mother explained that it was for her benefit since she was a toddler. The mother also added when you are in Kindergarten I will not require you to take a nap, because kindergartens don’t take naps in school.” The child then asked, “Will I graduate to kindergarten next month?
11. Obstacle Course?

When she returned she stated, “I have some good news and I have some bad news.” “ I tried to booboo, but it was only gas.”
14. Thinking Cap
Another 4-year-old was told by her parent that she needed to put on her thinking cap, but she could continue playing. The 4-year-old instead went into the front room and sat on the couch. The other siblings ask, "What is wrong?" "You can still play with us." The 4-year-old replied, " I am thinking."
15. Bumps
“I have bumps on my stomach, said one child to his mother. He raised his shirt and took a deep breath showing her. She thought he was referring to his nipples, but then he touched his rib cage. His mother said, “Those are your rib bones."

18. Sunday School
As a mother dropped her 4-year-old at church for Sunday School, the grandmother waited for her to bring in a change of clothing for the child after church. Apparently the grandmother was not moving fast enough. The 4-year-old stated, "Grandmother can we come on, they are missing me in Sunday School."
19.Spending the Night
The grandson told his grandmother, "I enjoy spending time with you, I like staying over your house, but I have been with you 2 days now, I need to see my mother."

The 4-year-old little girl looked at the 3-year-old boy and responded, "You are not old enough to call me baby." "She can call me baby, but you need to be older before you can call me baby."
23. President
A 5-year-old told his mother, “I want to become President of the United States so I can change the laws for you.”
