Interact with their friends.

By interaction, we do not mean long and drawn conversations. We just mean to make contacts with fleeting eyes and say, "Hello." Any attempt to recognize the existence of their friends can only be interpreted as an attempt to embarrass them in front of their peers. If you want to keep them happy, treat their friends as you meet an ex in the street, a relationship that ended. Just look at your feet, stay silent and hope they do not notice you.

6
Do not keep enough sweet and unhealthy snacks in the pantry at an easy distance to reach.

Homework is the tax audit of the IRS in the world of children. They know they can not escape, but they fear it from each bone of their body. When their parents bring it, it's never useful. Or at least that's how it's interpreted by children's ears.

You may think you're saying something innocent like, "Do not forget that you have homework to do", but all they hear is: "The clock pulls! You will not sleep tonight and will fail in everything you try! You still disappointed me again !! "

You push too hard, nor do not understand, neither more complicated, or not complicated enough,why do you do them!

"Apply" might seem like a strong word. You are not a prison guard, after all. Oh, but you could be too well. Stressing that bedtime is imminent is essentially a hostile act on their personal freedom. Why would you absolutely specify the passage of time, as if you were not the secret architect behind all this, draw diabolically trace to steal them precious moments? They can simply dig their nose to you, but rest that somewhere in the head, they sing this big song ofWretched. "Do you hear people singing? / Changing the song of angry men?!"

While they are there, why not just make every meal a big bowl of tasteless dough? Because of course, you do not want them to feel joy !!

There must be a better way to remove a sticker or food particles from your child's face. When they see that the wet thumb takes place towards them, ready to attack his cheek as a silk shower, she sends a thrill in the spine. They do not recoil because they oppose cleaning their faces.

Yes, refueling a body with the nutrients it must survive is important. But will it help a child to survive the Dystopian nightmare of Kill-or-being killed - Scape de Fortnite? Your inability to understand how a third-person shooting game is more important than sitting at a table, claiming to eat vegetables and ignore the questions about what they have done with their day to feel legitimately foolishly .

Talk about puberty.

Just walk. You can review the subject later. Like when they are 30.

What was so difficult for that?

You know your phone takes pictures too, right? You do not have to whip this big iPad and start pointing out everywhere, as if you hug with a three-ring binder. Whenever you do that, you make your kids want to follow the same safety advice to survive a fire house: stop, drop and roll.

A parent speaks of what the weather "could be" is the equivalent of a water kid.

20
Use the lol acronym in a sentence.

It's like when children in the 60s were facing parents who insisted on things like: "It's Groovy, I can dig." They do not think you're cool now. In fact, the opposite opposite.

A parent is always better served by being (or at least seeing being) on ​​knowledge. Once you start dropping Slang - "This girl you're talking about, does your BAE?" - Not only did you give a cause to a justifiable child to leave the house and become a full-time slice, you ruined your poker face. They know whatyouknow. Feign ignorance, and you have a much better chance to acquire important Intel. And remember: always turn off the40 words over 40 people should not use.

21
Be too loving with your spouse or partner.

Three words: Get ... a ... bedroom. Yes, children are very happy that their parents feel a real affection towards the other.

Or holding your hand for five seconds until their children notice, then immediately releasing your handle withextreme prejudice.

22
Be too loving withthem.

You leave only one choice: leave the city and change its name, changes their entire identity. They must enter the witness protection program. Seriously, what else can they do? The way you leaning for a kiss, and he landed directly on their cheek and stayed there for several seconds? How could your child eventually live this? They have the mark of the beast now. You canceled them.

24

It does not feel like asking a lot. You just do not want them to use the toilet as if it's a bullseye, they have no intention to hit. Or leave wet towels on the ground or toothpaste spots on the vanity mirror, or God knowsWhatIt's in the sink.

Your reasonable requests, however, are welcomed as if you are a health inspector looking to close the family business. Which potential do they spit to make you go? To learn more about the best ways to clean after your children, check20 amazing tricks to clean your bathroom.

Imagine being a child again and your parents suddenly have the ability to tell you something or share a photo, or (the sky helps us) a "joke" and that this exchange can be witness byeveryone you know and everyone you can ever know. It's horror shows that modern children face. How are embarrassed? A2017 British StudyFound only 14%, or a little more than one in ten children, are more embarrassed by their parents online than in real life. It is definitely one of theReasons why you should be so happy that you are not a teen right now.

27

If you inspect your children a "hilarious" tale of your childhood, make sure it adheres to these two rules: one, it has a point. Whether "our phones werewall-tied"or" and that's when I learned that you are not responsible for yourself ", have a destination or morality in mind. Secondly, your story is longer than aLooney Tunescartoon? If so, do not bother. You are heading straight for "I get it, I am GeeeeeeeeEt" Territory.

28
Give them housework.

Ask a child to get out of the trash or empty the dishwasher may seem harmless or even an opportunity for them to learn more about the value of hard work, but it is only a matter of community service. They only do it because the other option is incarceration.

You can encourage them all you want, but your "good job" is falling on deaf ears. You could also be a parole officer, going to their paperwork and remember them not to jump the city.

29
Continue to insist that "the originalStars warsThe movies were the best. "

You never convince them thatEmpire hitsis a better movie thatThe last Jedior evenThug. It will never happen. It would be like asserting that the Marx brothers are intrinsically more upset to the talentedTitan teen go. Shoot your hair everything you want, you do not change their minds. If something you make them just more annoying than you are as stuck in the past.

30
Force them to watch baby's photos of themselves.
