Part 2: 28 x blood irritating statements from parents

In response to my previous article about blood-irritating statements from parents, I received so much feedback from all sides that a second part could not be avoided. Those poor parents, they mean well, but we just can't take these comments seriously anymore.

1. ‘You have nothing to want.’

2. ‘You only do that when you live on your own.’

3. ‘When I was little, I didn't get all that, you know.’

4. ‘You're not made of sugar.’

5. ‘Do you think the little gnomes clean your room?’

6. ‘Nothing comes for free.’

7. ‘Aren't you supposed to be doing homework?’

8. ‘Wouldn't you start studying?’

9. ‘Money doesn't grow on my back.’

10. ‘You could have emptied the dishwasher for a bit.’

11. ‘You really leave everything lying around the house.’

12. ‘That girl has so much stuff.’

13. ‘Don't you already have a pair of pants that looks very much like that?’

14. ‘Well, you should go to bed on time tonight, because you're just yawning.’

15. ‘You're fine.’

16. ‘Yes, but we are not ‘all the other parents’.’

17. ‘I'll call her mother to discuss.’

18. ‘When is that test actually?’

19. ‘Did a bomb explode in your room?’

20. ‘I'm not a taxi.’

21. ‘Are you seriously going to eat candy right before dinner?’

22. ‘That belongs in the laundry basket, not on the chair in your room.’

23. ‘The only thing you need to do is put your folded clothes in the closet.’

24. ‘Not the whole world revolves around you, huh?’

25. ‘Text me when you're there?’

26. ‘You've been showering long enough now.’

27.  ‘Didn't you get pocket money? Then you can pay for it with that!”

28. ‘Are you going to eat that whole bag?’
