My kids say a lot of things, but they never say this

20 things my kids never say
  1. Oh, you’re in the bathroom, I'll wait until you come out to talk to you
  2. It appears we disagree.  Let’s talk this out and not yell…or whine… or throw things
  3. Daddy, let’s leave this toy store.  I don’t want anything
  4. Shhh, let’s go back to sleep and wake up at a reasonable hour
  5. While that candy looks appetizing, I don’t want to eat it or I will spoil my dinner
  6. Wait!  Before I go outside, can you make sure I have on my jacket, gloves and hat
  7. I don’t need a goodie bag, it’s their birthday party and it's not about me
  8. Let me move back a few feet because I respect your personal space
  9. More shampoo please
  10. Let’s watch what YOU want to watch on TV
  11. You look tired.  Let me sit here in silence while you rest
  12. It’s OK, I’ll wait until you eat your dinner before asking you for something
  13. Dear Santa.  All I want for Christmas is for peace on Earth
  14. Let me ride my bike slowly around this turn, because you know, it's dangerous
  15. I know we are out at a public place, so I will wait until we get home to throw a tantrum
  16. Daddy, it’s my bedtime.  I want to put away all my toys and just go to sleep
  17. I don’t care that it is the weekend, we should do homework because I have an ongoing thirst for knowledge
  18. Quiet guys, Daddy is on the phone and we want to make sure he can hear the person he is talking to
  19. We don't heat the whole world, let me close the door behind me
  20. Daddy. (That’s it.  Just Daddy.  A single “Daddy”.  One time. Not followed up by Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!)
