Mom eats kids' cake pops when they refuse to listen
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp
The mom life is real, you have to say what you mean, and mean what you say...
We've all been there: when you ask your kids not to do something, or even sometimes to do something, and they do not listen.
It is said that kids will be kids. They will persist in their fight to be in control of their lives until they grow up and then they realise it's not all that grand being in control.
Making decisions is hard. But as the older ones, we must stick to what we say or else.
Or else these kids will take every opportunity they get to walk all over you.
In summary, it's a hard knock life having to do what you say, because it doesn't always bring us joy being the enforcer or the disciplinarian.
A mother on TikTok showed us that you have to take a stand sometimes, without regrets (okay, maybe a little regret).
In a video she posted to TikTok, she shared how after a hectic morning, she was on her way to drop the kids off at school.
To calm everyone down, she decided to treat them to cake pops. Even though they were already late for school, she wanted to press the reset button and turn the day around.
But after ordering the cake pops, her kids persisted in bickering, even after she asked them to stop. She threatened to take away the cake pops if they did not listen.
