Seriously, that gave me so much real anxiety as a child because I didn't reliably know what to expect or whether I could even eat it. Eventually it turned into sneaking food and hiding/stashing it in my room and being constantly scared about food security. It was even worse when I would get extra specific about the way I was asking and my needs for clarity and predictability as an autistic kid were still ignored 😢
On the other side... as the food maker... I don't always know yet. Because I'm so overwhelmed by everything. So we're just going to have to be surprised together. Sorry, adhd, spectrum problems. 🤷♀️
So true. Plus, I remember a day I was around 14 years old, and my dog was doing something she wasn't supposed to. I opened my mouth to scold her, and MY MOTHER'S VOICE came out of me. Cue slight existential crisis lol
My grandmother would reference these old ass songs that young me had never heard of then be grumbley that I wasn't impressed with her brilliant word association. Then my mom not only word associate every musical ever from being a theater major but every 80s pop song that was so one hit wonder they don't even pop up on the hits from the 80s Playlists, but she also responds to people on media. Example hi I'm bob. HI BOB! and I'm hear to tell you about this amazing cruise. GREAT BOB WHYS YOUR CRUISE SO AMAZING! At least dad didn't sing he just had a list of automatic responses. What do you wanna eat? I don't care. Dirt it is then!
“AND UNDERWEAR MOONSHINE!” and “You’re a blonde haired little boy and the fact that I’m staring at a brunette means it’s time for a bath” is what killed me the most 😂😂
So funny! I’m imagining your kids away at college amusing their friends with hilarious stories about their crazy mama - and being so proud to have been raised by such a witty & creative woman. Bravo!
My mom loved to answer the whats for dinner question with “food” or alternatively “Whatever you’re making”. The second one rarely, if ever got anyone else up and cooking but she never gave up hope. 😂
I love this so much. My mom would do stuff like this often. Your kids are so lucky to have a such fun mom, they might find it annoying now, but they'll love and miss it later.
"MAMA!! Oooo!!! I don't wanna die!!!" 😂 The dinner conversation on point with my kids!! 😂 We just get the payback of how our own parents embarrassed us now onto our kids! 😂
as i thirteen year old girl, i promise we (generally) do like it. we just have to pretend we don't otherwise we can't tell our friends about the "cringe thing mom did"
@@dorthyjamieson5738not really. It's a result of being a different generation and that can't be changed, but that doesn't mean you can't find something to bridge the gap. My mom bridged the gap well, and she was 30 when I was born. She asked to be part of our jokes and let us in on how hers came to be and it resulted in us growing up respecting others and not seeking power over anyone just to be comfortable. What you should want is to connect with your children, so that when they grow up they won't want for toxic or abusive relationships out of lack of experience with a healthy one.
@@charlottebeadsI have a girl 3 years older than you and a boy 1 year older than you. Idk what I did or how I did it, but I absolutely CANNOT embarrass them. They join in on my shenanigans when I try to embarrass them and they laugh about it WITH their friends and sometimes get their friends to engage in said (harmless, of course) shenanigans in public. Fun to be had by all! 😄
You NEED to be sharing that beautiful voice of yours. You hit those notes spot on! There's probably a choir somewhere that desperately needs a voice like yours to save them!
@@calicamara2723Lol do you think they KNOW? Unless they’re actively in the process of cooking, they have no idea what’s for dinner and it’s annoying that you’re asking them to meal plan on the spot. Are you still a child?
@@angry-lucky-cattyIn that situation I'd prefer to be told 'I don't know yet'. Just refusing to answer can make it sound like they're rebuking or shaming you for wanting to know. Given the channel I think it's more likely that it's just a running family joke and that the kids don't really mind. But as a child I would have found that stressful as an answer to a genuine question.
That "What's for dinner" convo was my second favourite version in our house. My all time fav was when they were old enough for me to respond with "Whatever you cook." 😁😁
Oh my gosh, are you me? I love that “wear pants” and “shower” were in amongst the dad jokes and song responses 😂 This could have been filmed at my house.
HAHAHAHA!!!! I am not alone!!!! Played this for my son and said "See?? There ARE others like me!!", (he's 22 yrs old) and he said one was enough. I said if it wasn't for me he wouldn't exist..... he didn't find that as amusing as I did.
Bwahahhahahaa!!! You're hysterical and I freaking love you! I' was convinced we were the same mom. I just showed this to my 16 yr old son, and he said "dear God, there's 2 of you!" 😂😂😂😂😂
I was also the 'annoying' mum who broke into song and turned life into a musical constantly. Great news though: I now have a 20-year old who breaks into song with me.
The "mama! OoOoOoh I don't wanna die" and "and underwear moonshine" also my mom does the same food thing 😂 Edit: OMG I'M FAMOUS I'VE NEVER HAD THIS MANY LIKES OMG 👁️👄👁️✨✨✨✨
I feel your pain! My teenage son tried to go outside in shorts the other day. I had to remind him we live in Canada, it's snowing and cold outside! PS. You sing beautifully :)
My go-to quip for when my boyfriend asks what's for dinner/ what I want for dinner if we're eating out: Food... edible food... edible food with FLAVOR!!
I do too! And when I’ve got high silly energy I start dancing too 😂 they either complain and grow up! Or they laugh and start dancing with me 🎉 This is when being a mom is super fun
OMG the “what’s for dinner” took me back lmao. My dad ALWAYS said that. But also he was a single dad and really just didn’t know what he was gunna make for dinner lol.
THANK GOD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE!! 49 years old, 28 year veteran mama, last soldier in the home; 9 years, 8 months, 23 days. All 3 have NEVER neglected to inform me of how annoying I am, & they have told me nobody’s mom turns everything into a song, but, I KNEW I WASNT ALONE!!! 🥰🥰🥰
You remind me so much of my best friend’s mom when I was in high school. She was always so funny and quick. My mom had very dry humor so I always appreciated her sarcasm. It’s why her daughter was my best friend, she’s the exact same now.
Reaching adulthood is having the “I’ll get a blanket” response before ever thinking about touching the thermostat and deflecting if anyone ever tries to
Me too!! Now my adult children ask their children “ did you learn that from grandma?” Guilty of passing on the simplest daily joys which continue to annoy my children
