Not guilty as charged !
Some cool harada-data in today’s killer show prep…
*** “Wait and see,” because I said so,” “If someone asked you to jump off a cliff, would you do it?” “You’ll have someone’s eye out with that,” and “What did your last slave die of?” These are some of the cliches and sayings British moms got when they were kids that they now use on their own children.
‘Matter of fact- 8 out of 10 mothers still use these same old, same old sayings, according to The BabyWebsite, which questioned 3,000 mothers.
Well, truthfully, maybe guilty of a couple of these sayings… the poking the eye out one kinda holds true for my 2 sons when they were young.
Overall, I didn’t use any of these sayings cuz I thought they kinda sucked and sounded so not hip… I had better ones like…
“You guys are really pissin’ me off, ” “Keep it up and see what happens,” ‘What the hell were you thinkin’?,” “Quit chewing so fast, I’m tired of doing the Heimlich.”
They all worked… interesting to see what my kids will say to their kids (grandchildren- OMG !)
Still think the best one that works that’s should the test of time for 2 generations so far is… “If I have to stop this car…”
Still lookin’ for those kids…
