Things your Mum & Dad may have said
If you don't behave yourself I am going to run off with a Kiltie
If you don't stop crying I will give you something to cry about.
Straighten your face or it will stay like that.

Re: Things your Mum & Dad may have said
If you don't straighten your gob, I'll straighten it for you.
Make sure you have clean socks and jocks on in case you have an accident.
Pack it in or I will hit you that hard I'll knock you into the middle of next week.

Stop playing with yourself or you’ll go blind. No one will admit to that one I bet. Maybe why some still go around with Ivans saying about a distorted face. JS

Don’t let me hear another word pass your lips.
No you can’t be excused from the table. Wait until everyone else is finished.
What do you want for tea, bread and jam, or jam and bread.

If you continue to tell lies your nose will grow longer.
Telling a lie to stop a lier.
Where do babies come from dad.
They come from heaven
She at five years of age gets onto Google.
OMG he does not know about sex, what a moron I must be adopted.
Finish your food, there are starving children in Africa.

When can I have long pants mum, I’m 14,
Mum...let the air get to your legs it’s good for you, you’ll get them when we’ve paid the last provident cheque’s off.

Re: Things your Mum & Dad may have said
hi john sabourn #6
good morning,
that old adage stop playing with yourself or you will go blind, What if you where the only child, and like cappy with no toys only his stick.
Or what about Make this noise quietly.
Or spread out in a bunch.
