Mom: "What is it Beta?"
Child: "I want my lolly..."
Mom: "Beta, you are not old enough to have a lolly..."
Child: "WWaaaaaahhhhh.... want my lolly..."
Mom: "Beta, look around... even your elder brother has not got a lolly..."
Child: "But... but..."
Mom: "Now, stop sounding like a moped and calm down..."
Child: "Mama.. when will i get a lolly?
Mom: "It will be atleast 2 years from now... when you have grown enough teeth bite the lolly"
2 years later...
Child: "Mom... are you getting me my lolly?"
Mom: "You are still not ready for a lolly..."
Child: "I am too... and don't think i dint know about you giving lolly to big bro after just 1 year!"
Mom: "Now, that was different... he deserved it. Dint you see the menacing teeth he had? You also got bitten once right?"
Child: "Yea, but now i have such teeth. See? {EEeeee}"
Mom: "Hmm so i see..."
Child: "So, are you giving me my lolly or what?"
Mom: "Well, what did Aunty Hira say?"
Child: "She told me that i should not be sad about not getting lolly this year!"
Mom: "Don't you think you should listen to Aunty Hira? Afterall she is a dentist. She might pluck out a few of your teeth if you don't"
Child: "Oh No you don't! Don't try that old trick on me... Im not falling for it!"
Mom: "I'm not pulling any trick Beta.. Honest!" {crossed fingers}
Child: "If you don't give me my lolly, I'm going to shift in with Kanom Aunty"
Mom: "Oh! I'm sure you won't!"
2 days later Mom got this note from the Child...
"I shall be shifting in with Kanom Aunty. She has promised me 2 lollies and also ginger sweet every other day! See you. I shall be clearing my stuff out this weekend"
Mom was in panic mode. The kids today have a very bad habit of doing wht they say... and she can't even do anything about it coz if she tried, the kid would call child support!
Mom: "Ok Beta. All the lollies are out of stock at the moment. So you will have to wait for a couple of days before i can get it for you ok?"
Child: "Well, you better! else im outta here..."
And so it is with kids (big and small) nowadays...
:-S
