Speaker 1 (00:00):
As a parent, Paulina, you're having to come up with
creative ways you're lying to your child.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
I'm alive.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
You're lying. You're lying. You like kids snkes lies to
skeitch it lies.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
This is how, this is how these the suits work
around here with their skits of lies. And then and
then you take the schedul lize home and you expose
your children to them. Look at the effect it's having
on everyone's life. But how are you lying to your kid?
And then I want to I want to expound on this.
You can call in text eight five five five three
five how do you have to lie to your kid?

(00:29):
And there's no judgment here because I got to imagine
that it's just easier sometimes to lie to the kid
than it is to try and explain to them. You
know why we can't do the thing that we can
do because maybe you're busy doing other stuff.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
It's like, I got to what's the lie?

Speaker 4 (00:42):
The one that I'm doing right now is she likes
to wake up and go to sleep wanting to go
outside first. So she wants to go outside, like I
guess she sees a dog go out right in the morning.
She feels that she wants to go outside, and she'll
point outside and I say, but all site's closed.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
She knows the closes O sidey is closed.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
I say, outside closed, Gigi, outside closed, like it's not
open yet.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
She doesn't understand time yet, so I can't really say, like, well,
like ten o'clock.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
It's open.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
But when I'm home on the weekend Saturday morning, I
don't want to go outside at seven thirty.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
Like outside the closed.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
It's closed, like like there's a close sign. So she
understands open clothes kind of. So I'm like closed and
she goes closed, Mommy closed, and I said, yes, mommy closed.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Yeah. Yeah, so like, wait, is outside open?

Speaker 2 (01:28):
It opens after.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
I have coffee, but opens yeah, after I do like
my morning stuff that I need to do, like you know,
go tose the bathroom stuff in peace, right, Yes, yeah,
Benzo goes out first though I told them for Benzo.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Benzo gets to go and I test out the water.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
It's not outside for dog. It's not closed for dogs.
Never clos never.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Oh and our house never closed for Benzo.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yeah, he's peid before on the floor and pooped. That's
been great.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Well he's a dog. Yeah, what otherwise you're telling your child.
I would like to know because I'm sure teas your
parent that way.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
She has meltdowns when I let her face time my
mother or her grandmother, so like, Bopcha is my mom, right,
and she's upsets like I think, like if she had
to pick, say one person, it's Bobcha forever, like who
cares about mom?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
But I love it.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
And when I let her FaceTime, you know, we got
to hang up with the phone because that's what we do.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
We have to bound the day. And you know, she.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
Much she freaks out and I say, Bobcha's working, bob
Jessic go to work because she understands work, which is amazing.
I love it Daddy work that she associates that with Daddy.
So I say, bob Cho work. I'm hoping she gets it,
like Bobcha's got things to do. Bocha is busy.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
She'll kind of calm down. She'll say, Okay, bob Cho work,
bob Cho work.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
So that's the only way that can get them off
the phone is if she thinks Grandma's going to work
even though it's like nine thirty at night, Bocha goes
to work.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Yeah, I know, my sister tells the kids like that
the toy store is closed. That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yeah, you know, it'll drive by it and it's like,
we'll go in there. No, it's closing. I can't go
in there. It's closed. I think that's a pretty common
one though, is she's just not open. The thing that
you don't want to go to, you couldn't go to.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Yeah it's closed, it's canceled, doesn't exist. Yeah, we'll have
a lot of that. She's catching on the thing. So
she's about eighteen months almost, so she she gets a
lie and I know lies and the skits are coming.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
I just gets a lot at home, so she'll get
a taste of that. Have you done a skit and
a lie? To other people? Like used her as.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
An excuse because my mom would always be like, oh,
Kaelin doesn't feel well, we have.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
To leave, and I'd be like, no, I feel fine.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, yeah, that one I've done. That.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
The one that I've done and I'll own is I
didn't have a sitter so I couldn't go Like you
guys know, I'm outside in twenty minutes, like.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
I had an amazing mileage. God bless, I'm so.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Grateful you've wheeled the child in here, so like, yeah,
oh yeah, you just right exactly. If you really wanted
to go then and you couldn't, Gig would just come
with you.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
She's always on my hip.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
If I don't have a sitter, like I have her
with me obviously if she can, you know, if I
could bring a baby, but if I really don't have
a sitter, like, you'll know, you'll know.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
And that happens once in a while.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
It has happened, like I couldn't go to the casino
one time, you know, because I didn't have a sitter
and she wasn't allowed.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
I called the casino and they.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Said, no, I really wanted to go out, you bring
your baby.

Speaker 5 (03:58):
I'm not.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
But that's the only skin and li I'll do is like, oh,
I didn't have a sitter that night, Like, no, I
had a sitter.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
I just didn't want to go. Oh my god so much.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I told my kid that you have to have a
membership to shop at Target, and only grandma has one
that is really good. It's a good one that is phenomenal.
I really like that one. You need to use that. Yeah,
just pawn everything off on the grandparents. I think people
use that. People use the kid and the wife and
spouse and you know husband excuse all the time.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
So the problem with doing that is that here's the
target membership story. This is absolutely brilliant, ell brilliant.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
We spent way too much money there.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
When my son was like three four years old and
so then I told him that you have to have
a target membership and Grandma has a target credit card
and it works. Yeah, I save a lot of money. Yeah,
until you know your child becomes old enough to realize
that that's a lie and their mom is a liar.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Well he's six and a half.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
So we're doing great so far.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Okay, that's how this is great. Managed to keep it going.
I like it. Thank you, el have a good day.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
No, it's like people use their spouse. Oh yeah, we
can't go tonight because so and so says we can't go.
And the problem with that is half the time I
find out that so and so didn't say that, and
then you start to sort of dislike so and so
because like, well, so and so never lets you do anything,
and then you then you talk to so and so
and so and I never said that. I never said that,
and then I don't know who's who is telling this
kits in the lives?

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Are you lied? Did you?

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Are you really that much of a tyrant? Or is
this person lying because they don't want to go? Hey Angie, yes, hi,
how do you lie to your kid?

Speaker 5 (05:38):
So when he's fourteen now, so he's he's way too smart.
But when he was little, whenever I was eating something
and I didn't want to share, I would tell him
it was spicy, and yeah, every time.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
That's pretty good, that is pretty good. Yeah, it's just
spicy for you. You don't want that.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
Yeah, if it was like a like a five day
and myself buttered noodles, Mommy, can I have some? Oh no,
it's spicy, you won't like it. Smart it's oh man,
all the time, I have some? No no, no, no no,
the chocolate is spicy.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
You won't like it.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
It's pretty good. I like it. Thank you, Angie. You
have a great day, you too.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Let me see here to help with meltdowns when leaving
the park, saying goodbye to the park.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
Oh it's you say goodbye to the park.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Okay, that we say good night to missus, Rachel.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
I let her watch a little bit before bed, and
I always say, okay, we say good night, miss Rachel
and she waved to the TV.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, so it works. I haven't had a meltdown.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Along the same as Along the same lines as Paulina.
My son always wants to go outside at the crack
of dawn, but whether it's the heat of summer or not,
I always say, it's too cold to go on this side.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Hey, Ashley, how do you doing. I'm good, Ashley.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
What do you tell your kid? You lie to your
kid because you don't want to do something.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
I tell them the.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
TV died when I want to watch for a million.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Times, and I sure they don't know how to turn
it on. They must not know how to do it themselves.

Speaker 5 (07:01):
No, they do.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
But so we have a Samsung TV and you can
control it on your phone.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
So i just go to my phone and turn TV off.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
I'm like, oh no, it dies, not the TV again.

Speaker 5 (07:12):
Oh my god, I can't I keep watching the same
episodes of Blue.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
That's nice, I can't.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
I like Blue, but no.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Thank you actually have a good days. Oh this is

the rides and I tell my four year old. The
rides are closed to little kids because one fell out.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Trauma. Oh my god, wow, hey Lisa, Yes, kid's never
going to go to ride ever. Lisa, how do you
lie to your kid?

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I tell my Well, my teenagers now so they know better,
But I tell.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
I need to tell them that they if they were
really bad, I would rip up their birth certificate and
they will have ceased to exist.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Whoa, whoa what? Hey is that piece of papers? Not there?
They you not a thing?

Speaker 5 (08:06):
My son, my son and all of his infinite wisdom
would say, well, you'll miss me. How would I miss
you if you ever existed?

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (08:14):
You try to erase your child, Lisa, Oh my god,
I'm gonna write that one down. Thank you, Lisa, Jane,
I take you out if I don't want to lease
your old text. I don't want to buy McDonald's. I
say they're out of chicken nuggets. We tell our two
year old that yogurt is ice cream.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's a good one.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
That's pretty smart. Umm. Let me see here.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
I tell my kids when they're being naughty that I
was going to put them in the school for naughty kids.
I think that's called prison. When I was little and
I had just learned how to read. My mom told
me one night that McDonald's was closed as we drove
by a scream, but the sign says drive through open
twenty four hours.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
