Toddler Drives Mom To Brink of Existential Crisis 

“Momma needs to have this existential crisis by herself,” can’t let them see you lose it. 😂🤣

I absolutely love how you don't show your toddlers, but your teen (who understands what being on the internet entails) gets to join in some of your videos!

I eventually started answering the why's with "what do you think?" and then progressed into "just to make you ask that question" .

My child is a preschooler and somehow I find it very amusing to answer some of his questions the way you did. Just to see what part will he remember and spit it out somewhere (probably at an improper place) out of the blue 🤭🤣

Ah, I remember they "why" phase, then "how come", & the teen phase "whatever".🤣

I am not a parent but I really enjoy all your videos. I grew up with a lot of "because I said so" and "as long as you live under my roof" etc. I wish these responsive parenting philosophies had been available when I was a child, I would have saved a lot on adult therapy. :)

I was feeling the same way today, my Grandson is 7 and if he doesn't understand something, he will keep asking questions relentlessly until he works it out in his brain. I do confuse him though sometimes because when I have reached the end of explanations I think he can understand I end up explaining whatever it is like I would to an adult. This has led to some interesting messages from his Mom after he gets home, because he absorbs every word I have said, like a sponge absorbing water, however it never comes out the same as it goes in it has led to some very interesting conversations with my daughter trying to explain what we were originally talking about after he gets done telling her what Grandma taught him.

My toddler is not yet fully into the why phase but these explanations are actually gold for when it does happen. And your systems explanation for laundry actually helped me understand my ADHD brain that does in fact not know where things are if they're not in their spot 😅 I just spent 3 extra minutes looking for my lunch for work because my husband put it on an open space in a shelf one shelf above the one our lunches are usually on 🤦🏻‍♀️

wow... really impressive explanations. society needs more of this. many people say children are stupid, (except their own of course) I always say they are only as stupid as we let them be, and if we don't take the time to explain things they don't learn things either. so I think this video is a wonderful example of how it can be done.

I am a 63 yr old woman raising 2 of my 4 grandkids(my daughter passed away from cancer 5 yrs ago) one is a 15 yr old girl & the other is a 9 yr old boy.😳 I can so relate to your videos! You make me laugh every day! I just stumbled across your videos last wk & am loving them!🥰

I’m currently pregnant with my first child and the “Why” phase is both scary and hilarious to me 😩🤣🤣🤣 And I love how deep and contemplative your answers are 🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

It's like you listened to every conversation I have had with my kids this week. I am currently hiding outside in the shed so my kids can't find me.

🤣 that's gotta count as a form of torture

My daughter had her first nugget this year and I blessed her with the gift of your videos 🤣🤣. With your help my nugget is gonna be awesome!!! Thanks for all the hard work you put into your videos ♥️

My mom hated the why’s and so I got a lot of books. “Look it up” was frequently said in our house, and there was no google 🤣

Whatchu doodin 🤣

I use to say "I won't be a good momma bc of the 'why' phase".... Shoot to me becoming a parent annnnnnd the kid's nonverbal special needs 😂 whelp, I sure got to skip the "why" stage. Thank you for sharing this skit for momma like myself to feel your lived experience 💚

Haven't hit why yet. We got stuck in the "ooooh .... what's THAT?" stage for a bit. I remember being at the store one time, and some old vietnam vet about fell out of his scooter buggy when I very calmly replied, without missing a beat "that is a thermonuclear reactor. This particular grocery store is trying to summon Godzilla." "Oooh .... otay!"

Thank you for creating contact that is entertaining and affirming. When the parental grind is draining (which happens more often than id like to admit) you make me smile and give me the energy to recenter and be the best mom i can be for my kids, and the best person i can be for myself. Thank you. 💜

“Ima put the oonicorn away” and “what ya dojin mama” 😝😂🤣

Glad to see I’m not the only parent that explains things to their kids. My kids Dr subtly tells me to lay off on the detail to medical procedures. I think its interesting and helps kids to manage expectations. But I do admit I forget they are kids and the details can be scary. My girls call it a E-corn. Thanks for the great work👏👏🤣😝💕🍷🍷🍷🫶

Finally someone else who folds dresses lol

Goodness so true. I'd go have a crisis too but I am on the hampster wheel to pay rent.

This stage requires a fair amount of patience, but I think it’s prep for the teen years, which requires even MORE patience!!😂. I’m glad you give them answers, because open communication starts with not being afraid to talk to your parental units! 😁❤️👍🏻

"why do YOU think I'm making lunch?"

I dunno how I found this channel but I sure am glad that I did 😃

I love hearing you explain things, you have such a pleasant, relaxing demeanor🙂

This hit accurately. I have 3 and yep to everything. Humorous and entertaining. Thanks fellow Canadian girlfriend.

Who what when and why are the worst words a toddler learns

Haha I remember my nieces why phase lol 😆 most of the time I had no clue how to respond to the why question. We are only 9 years apart so it was kind of fun a 3 year old asking why all the time and my 12 year old self going "I don't know." "Ask Mom"

🤣🤣🤣You help get me get through the day!! You're the best!❤️ My youngest calls it an Ewwcorn too🤦🏻‍♀️lol

I felt this on a cellular level. Only my 6 yo would have interrupted me 15 times while I explained capitalism and died inside a little

I love how you took a “wooly mammoth” left on the answer. I started feeding my kids nonsense answers and they eventually quit🤣.

“Why?” 😂

My favorite strategy is the “Reverse uno” move. Just reply “why do you think?” And then you are in control of the “infinite why”.

I never wanted to be a parent before, after watching your videos I've been thinking I might be a good parent like you

You're the best. Also I love toddler's "Otay". They say it like that in the Netherlands as well and it is the most adorable thing in life.

Cause Jeff Bezos wanted a big boat! I'm dead 💀💀😂😂😂💀💀!

My oldest is 16.. my youngest is 18 months.. it's been a while since I did the toddler stage... I forgot about the WHY phase! Ahhhhh!

You truly are a mama after my own heart. I remember those conversations with my once 3 year old daughter (now 7) about capitalism…

Ahhh I loveee your vids I'm obsessed with them and with the stories about your kids Please make more I love to watch you while procrastinating lmao 💀

I’m crazy, I loooove the why game. I never lose, my kid always gave up first. Superpower!

So cute and funny.. I wish I had the patience and vocabulary to explain things like this.😂

Bravo!!!!! Love!!! Thank you

Oh my goodness..... I'm so glad I found you!!! Thank you so much for expressing a LOT of what my brain thinks... also the very healthy way you show different learning and processing skills that kids and adults have!

Goodness, this was me with my kids (5 of them) and with my nieces and nephews (I've lost count), and then my grandsons. I eventually just asked them the question back 😂

My son is only 2 and I’m already dreading this phase 😂

My 2 year old skipped the “why” phase and is in the “how you do you know” stage Lmfaoo ❤

So much respect for what you do!!!

I'm impressed you made it that far into the "why's"...

This world needs to see your videos. Why They would learn so much. Why? Because you show the truth of parenting in easy to understand, and apply situations in the every day world. Why? Because she shows the true meaning of "I love you"!!!! Oh-Tay.

I love your explanation for why we put clean clothes away - and put things away in there proper place! So true - she says as she just spent ten minutes looking for her phone and bifocals.

Ah yes! The "Why's"! Fun times!

None of my kids ever went through the "why" phase

OMG! I laughed so hard! Thank you, it's been a super cathartic experience.

“Because Jeff Bezos wanted a big boat” will now be my reason for anything. 😂

Intro : kids or weird ! Me : *Laughs in soon to be teen*

"Why?" "Because Jeff Bezos wanted a big boat." "Otay" 😆

I'm not a mom but babysit for 4 kids ages 2-4. There are days where I seriously want to have a melt down. Your video's help so much in keeping me in a good mood and remembering to laugh. Thank you!

You know the first few videos I didn't know being honest..but I liked your honesty and intelligence and honest humor so I just subscribed 😁🤗😂

I actually believe two people are talking to each other 😂. And your rants are awesome!

I wonder what your kid's reaction would of been if they saw you dressed as a toddler hahaha. You're so awesome :))))

My granddaughter is at this age. I forgot how FUN!!! IT IS! 😂

You're so funny... Tbh I stumbled upon you by mistake and found your content so funny 🤣. Keep doing what you do.

Just discovered you on YT! Your comedy is so entertaining I subscribed immediately! I'm glad I found you so I can smile even more!

The bows 😆 🤣

It’s the “mom didn’t pay that much attention in biology class” lol I have used this line many times

Coolest mom ever! Weird, but very cool! 🤣🤗

Oh the "why" stage 😂

This reminds me of the time my little cousin asked me about taxes 😂

Loving the rainbow skirt!

🤣😂😂 I feel so much better about my messy dresser…

I love the turn this took!

This is spot on. I love your channel 💜❤️🧡💛💚

Loving EVERYTHING YOU DO. I wish that you were around to help me when I was raising my sons. .

Lmao!! This is so on point

This is way too much why for me today! So glad my kids are grown rn!

i LOVE this please keep making more 😂

Funny as hell & so informative. Ty

You have great answers. I don't think I would have done that well. Lol

I shall add "whatcha dude'in" to my list of query phrases. Yippee 🖖💚💙💜

Thank you!!!I can just show my son this to exsplane life to him........but I will still b answering a hole bunch of new ?'s he has but I'm gonna look at it as"well I skipped a few houndred ?'s" 😂😂 I'm good with that

My 4yr old has a unicorn just like that she calls Cupcake. My 5yr old is in this "why" stage but he asked more then why....

You are beyond talented.

loving the creative growth babe...

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ All the love! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Love everything about this.

The deep reason for the why is hilarious 🤣💀🤣

That was more than my daily allotment of words in just over 3 minutes. I think I stopped breathing about half way through.

I've been there and I have the stained t-shirts to prove it lol Thank you for reminding me I'm not the only mom who has to stop and rethink life choices. 😁

I love your sunset eyeshadow here!

Am I a parent, no. Do I relate to any of this from the parental side, nope. Do I still find this absolutely hilarious, absolutely.

That last one lol

My “why” word was “how come”. My dad banned me from using it at home

I keep thinking about the tiktok you shared with the trick of "ask me a better question."

Well done!!!

My body will now be referred to as "meat sack" not matter the social setting. I often ask myself "why" while doing laundry & preparing food. Thank you for reminding me why I can't live in utter filth & why I must eat Lol yes I question these things daily.🥰

When my kids asked why, after a few times I would ask them why back. They are now all adults.

When I was in my late twenties my mother gave me a birthday card and there was a line on it that said as a child you ask asked about a million questions with your curiosity my mother scribbled out the word about

Wonder if we just said a load of rubbish they would still ask "why?". Great video.

The work one got me. When I was little (about 4) Mom was going to work and I kept pestering her. She told me if she didn't work we would have no tv. I said "so". She replied, "No tv means no Scooby Doo". I slapped her on the butt and told her to go work.
