3 Mommy – 0 Sneaky Kid
Nov 19, 2008 I Forgot to Tag, Parenting
Oh yes. The tales of me outsmarting my son continue. Do you remember my blog a couple of months ago regarding Xavier’s sneaky ways???
We shall call this chapter 2. Volume 2.
Saturday, X went to a sleepover at his friend Anthony’s house. (yes, the same friend who he traded shoes with) Prior to, I get a call from Anthony’s mom letting me know that a little brown birdie *cough*anthony*cough* told her that X was plotting to sneak GTA over to play after the adults went to sleep.
Really?
Not only that, this brown bird sang a little song about D letting X play this god awful game while I wasnt home.
ReEally?!
So I chuckle a little, and I head into X’s room to check the contents of his backpack. This little shit not only had the game in his possession, he had it hidden inside the Kung-Fu Panda movie case, BEHIND that movie… BEHIND another parent authorized game. Yep. Sure did.
So I call D. I asked him if in fact he did let X play when I was not home. Nope. (I already knew, but I had to ask)
So I remove the game. I didnt say anything, just took it and sent him on his way. Not 30 minutes after he left his brown ass was back here, frantically searching for the game.
“What are you doing?”
“Uh … Uh I left my shoes”
“Riight. Well grab them then.”
“What is wrong mom?”
“Why do you ask, Xavier?”
“Cause you are acting funny right now.”
“Are you sure you just dont feel guilty?”
(insert xavier’s stupid look here)
We waited to call him out. Til Monday after school. When we did, he lied his little ass off. Including, but not limited to:
“I havent seen that game in months!”
to
“I didn’t put it there”
to
“I was only showing it to prove it to him that we had it!”
Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. And that is why he is grounded *indefinitely*.
I win. He loses. 3 me, him… a big fat ZERO.
The End.
Parenting Victories. Spill em.
OR
A time you were beyond busted by your parents.
