1. diaper changes, in general, are bad, but expecting a person to lie down for one is ridiculous. If you can't change my diapers while I'm standing up, I'd rather you just skipped it entirely. What's that? You say I can't stand up without you holding me, which makes it difficult to change me? Oh, you "need both hands" to put a diaper on a wiggly toddler? Cry me a river, Mom.
2. When I indicate, through inarticulate screeching, that I want that thing on the other side of the table that I can't reach, you persist in giving me the wrong thing, or saying "no, you can't play with medicine bottles/electrical parts/batteries/wheat-based food items/plastic bags/pop cans/etc. Stop leaving interesting things on the table if you're not going to give them to me!
3. This "time-out" thing is for the birds. Just because I am throwing a giant tantrum and attempting to scratch you in a studied, deliberate fashion doesn't mean I should have to go in my crib...I mean, seriously. What is that about. Hey, Mom, did you know you have a big scratch on your collarbone? Where did that come from? It's interesting. *poke poke*
4. Spinach. What the fuck are you thinking? *Hork*
5. Sometimes the sippy cup has grape juice in it, and sometimes it has water in it. Are you messing with me?
6. Get that nail clipper away from me! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
