Gross Things Kids Do:
1. They don’t flush the toilet. Nothing like lifting the lid to discover a day-old mound of kid-turd.
2. They pee the bed. Not just a trickle, but a full-on geyser of urine while they sleep, and render the unsuspecting mattress unsalvageable.
3. They fart. Not cute, little-kid toots, but real, hot FARTS. At the dinner table, usually.
4. They belch. Chili-dog burps that make the room shake. Again, usually at the dinner table. When fancy guests are visiting.
5. They have sick morning breath and they pounce on your face while you’re still sleeping in your bed and they breathe their hot, musty dragon breath up your nose while demanding breakfast.
I guess it’s the trade-off for that first year of sweet-smelling babyhood they grace us with. What do your kids do that gross you out?
why do they lick??? my youngest who is almost 7 and should KNOW BETTER!!!!!! puts her mouth on the conveyor belt at loblaws cuz it’s just mouth height. GAH!!!
she also slurps off the “water” that forms on the top of the yogurt. of all the things, _that_ gives me the willies…
They pick their nose and eat it. AND YES Ashley….the licking! My son licked the counter at McDonalds on the weekend…I almost barfed! They walk around with their hands in their pants and then eat with them….god I could go on and on…
yes to all of yours – and Ashley’s! I also have a child who cannot keep his fingers out of his nose to the point where he has a sore under one nostril and frequently makes it bleed just enough to make people notice and force me to explain that he just has a tiny scrape from his digging. SWEEEEET.
They lick stuff. Seriously what makes you think that nasty ol’ rock you just picked up on the dog covered nature trail is going to taste good. THEN they look at me in disgust and want to know “Why does my tongue taste yucky?!” Ummm, ya ask the rock.
