Momo Fali's: Wrong Answer

Wrong Answer

This drawing is from some of my son's speech therapy homework from last week. For this assignment, I had to show him the picture then ask him questions about it.

I said, "Look at this. The Mom is just coming in the door and the Daddy and the little girl made a big mess in the kitchen. Now they're just sitting there eating and watching TV. What do you think will happen next?"

He replied, "Well, maybe the Mom needs to clean it up."

Oooohhhh SNAP!

Say WHAAATT? Man, who's been setting the example here? (snort)

Perhaps someone should take the lad aside and gently explain that in the real world (the one where If Momma Ain't Happy, Ain't Nobody Happy!) one should do one's best to stay on momma's good side. Which reminds me, I have some cleaning up to do...

Funny stuff!

I showed my kids the same thing and said what you said and their response, in unison was:

"They will probably get spankings."

Well, look at it this way .. at least he's used to YOUR house being cleaned up by SOMEONE. If I asked my kids the same question, they'd say, "Mom will flop down on the couch...and NOBODY will do the dishes!"

Mine would say, "That would be about the time you started throwing pots and pans in the kitchen."

that's too funny- a man's man! Thanks for your comment... you're definitely luckky- my dad is one of 13 and we do that exact same thing- that's the reason I never have to worry about that part of the family- at least that's one thing!

You can tell by the look on her face that the mom knows who will be cleaning it up, too.

Doesn't look that bad. And, maybe there's more to the drawing. Like, another kid off to the right who's got an evil grin on his face and flour all over his shirt. But it's true... either way, mom will end up cleaning it.

Yikes! The challenges of raising considerate men! I'm sure your future daughter-in-law will appreciate your efforts. As will your grandkids.

obviously, this mother was only gone for about five minutes. any longer and the mess would have been logarithmically (that's a word) larger, and i dare say it would have given the dude a cramp to draw it accurately.

Oh but he's a realist. Because isn't that what is going to happen? Once Dad's butt is Velcro'ed to the couch, it ain't moving!

Haha, sounds familiar. My mom once left a book about procrastination in the middle of the floor to see how long it would take one of us to pick it up. Instead we walked around the book for several weeks I believe.

Gee, thanks.
