In random order, here are the top 20 sentences I seem to have on repeat lately:
Sit down properly and eat.
No fart noises at the dinner table.
Chew with your mouth closed.
Do not run in the house.
Don’t jump off the couch.
Get off my coffee table.
Leave my couch pillows alone.
Don’t push your brother.
Don’t hit your sister.
Please do not lick me.
Pick up your toys.
I said stop running!
Eat your vegetables.
Don’t talk with your mouth full.
What happened now?
It is unfortunate that you bumped your head, which is exactly why I told you not to jump off the couch.
