Loudly proclaiming his innocence
You know, that little look of surprise that seems to say: « What? It’s not me! »
We suddenly become essential
They’ve been playing quietly in their room when we suddenly hear a cry of doom and they come to us running!
Infinite love and affection
In the same vein: beware if they come cuddle you and announce their intense love for you for no particular reason!
They take things into their own hands
When children realize they can’t hide their mischief and escape the consequences, they’ll often admit their wrong a little awkwardly. The results are always super cute!
When the sibling starts crying
If one of your children starts crying for no apparent reason, you might want to investigate!
It’s all in the eyes
As you know, children aren’t as adept at hiding their feelings as as adults and you can easily see it in their eyes when they are trying to hide something! (You’ll also gain a nice mysterious reputation: they’ll think you can read their mind!)
Silence
The most popular answer! Having children also means learning to tolerate a higher constant noise level. But when the silence comes, the mother should always worry!
Blaming the sibling
If you’re a mom of several children, you’ll probably have the opportunity to realize that when one of them is being naughty, the others will be afraid of being blamed and will most likely tell on them before you even have time to notice something is amiss! Just be careful: sometimes they’ll lie not to get in trouble!
Trying to distract your attention
The older they get, the more they try to make you believe the unbelievable just to distract your attention. Something to remember? If they try to prevent you from approaching their room!
When they subtly get the cleaning products
Your child is going back and forth between his room and the bathroom, arms full of cleaning products? He’s probably trying to get rid of the evidence before you can see it. Tell yourself that the positive side is you won’t have to do it yourself anymore!
