Trying to get a child to do something is almost impossible at times. Either they don’t follow the simple instructions you give them, or they take them to literally. It’s rather annoying at times, and it can really test your nerve as a parent.
But it’s just kids being kids, as annoying as it may be at times, they don’t know any better, and they’re having fun.
Plus, you were like that for your parents at one point in your life, so it’s only fair that it happens to you. It’s just a thing every parent must face.
You have to admit, being a parent can be rather funny at times, especially when you’re children do something hilarious.
Here are 17 children who took instructions too literally.
#1 ‘I was fixing my computer when my son brought me his Sonic the Hedgehog teddy...
...When I asked him why he brought it over, he said it was to make my computer go faster.’
#2 This is what happens when you drag your child to a modern art museum.
#3 I don’t think he quite understood what bring a fish to school day meant.
#4 This girl started a whole new tradition and meaning to New Year’s Toast.
#5 I’m sure when your mom said to play with the dog, this isn’t what she meant.
#6 That cat doesn’t look very impressed.
#7 ‘I told my daughter to only eat half the grapes if she wasn’t that hungry.’
#8 Maybe explain to him a bit better what keeping your eye on the ball really means.
#9 I’m not sure that’s how you name quadrilateral squares.
#10 At least he’s honest about the frailty of life.
#11 Those clocks have some interesting hands.
#12 I like the way that kid thinks!
#13 This is what happens when you tell your child to play outside.
#14 ‘I told my son to put a jar of water in the dog’s bowl… This is what happened.’
#15 Hey, at least the kid got it right.
#16 Never tell your child they can’t step one foot out of the house, they’ll end up doing something like this.
#17 I’m just surprised he’s managing to use chop sticks like this!
