25 Times A Parent Cleverly Dealt With Their Gullible Child

Any parent will tell you that dealing with kids requires patience, skill and some amount of humour. Many parents even chose to follow the wise words of one individual who once said, “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em”.

JoNo: I don’t understand how a parent isn’t at the school or on the phone to the school the very next day after their child arrived home without their glasses. They may well think “the glasses could be anywhere and we’ll never find them” but it would be worth a try, surely?

Dumb teenager: Can I just say that once it gets to a certain age this crosses the boundary from secure peranting to just plain creepy. I’ve still got this $hit hooked up to one of my google accounts! I’m 17 for fu(ks sake! I’m legally old enough to have sex, quit school and drive independently and yet my perants still think they need to moniter every image, word and video that crosses my screen online. Good thing they don’t know about guest mode…

lenka (edited): We called the police when my little brother, then aged 5, went missing. He went upstairs to go to bed. Mum went up to tuck him in and turn the light off about 15 minutes later and he was gone. 5 hour police search covering several km radius from our house. Found him when the sniffer dogs were called in. He had pulled the mattress ever so slightly from the wall, slotted himself in the gap and pulled the blanket over the top of himself and gone to sleep. Legit looked like an empty made bed.

Nicky: Bought red dog food that was 90 percent off. Later his poo looked bright red and I thought he was dying. A vet visit later, I realized why the food was so discounted.
