7 Things Kids Shouldn't Expect On Mother's Day

What kids shouldn't expect on Mother's DayMother's Day is a treasured day for moms. It's not just special because of the adorable handmade gifts and flowers they get... No, it's much more that that. It's special because it means...The. Whole. Day. Is.About.Them. As a mother, every day is spent taking care of other people. From morning until night they're taking care of little and big people. While mother's love taking care of their brood, they save up all of our selfishness for one day. Mother's Day

Here are 7 things children should not expect to happen on Mother's day...

A home cooked dinner.

Unless you're planning on making it yourself, which you should, don't plan on mom cooking you anything. Don't expect a snack, a drink, a meal the kids won't eat, nothing.

Any type of emotional support all day.

Don't expect mom to give you emotional support all day. You will need to find support in your siblings, other family member, or dad. Mom's off. She will not care about your boo boos, your argument over who had the lego first, or the fact that she won't make you food. None of it. Don't waste time. 

To see mom in the morning.

 Moms work all day, every day, 24 hours a day. Sleeping in is the biggest rarity in her life. Do not expect to see her on Mother's day morning. She will be sleeping. As long as she possibly can. If she has little kids her body might rebel against her, telling her she has to wake up. Then you, as the child, shouldn't expect anything other than the blame. Because it really is your fault.

Diapers to be changed

You can't be too shocked that mom has no desire to change dirty diapers... At all. Don't expect any diapers to be changed on this glorious day. Not a grand babies... Not a child's... You should help a little sibling out or teach them to do it. Mom is off the hook!

The house to be cleaned

Unless she wants to dance! The house could combust on mother's day and she wouldn't care. It's her day!

Fake laughter at your not funny jokes

I hate to break it to you, but not even mom will give you a pitty laugh today. You'll either have to actually be funny or try the day after Mother's day.

Mediation

 This is the day all kids will have to duke it out. Instead of helping you deal with your problems rationally, she will give you boxing gloves and tell you to enjoy.

The one thing you should expect is to do absolutely everything for your mom and wait on her hand and foot.All.Day.Long.
