Tricks You Played On Your Parents And Got Away With As A Child. by slimyem: 8:48pm On Sep 16, 2012
If you had parents that were as strict as mine,you would have found ways to outsmart them at one time or the other.....
Share here if you will...
All for fun..
Here's mine..
.
As a kid,I was never allowed to watch movies...except on holidays.
It was a school night and everyone had gone to bed except my dad.
He wanted to see a movie and was sitting on a chair backing the dinning.
I crept silently under the dinning table and squatted there just about the time the movie was starting.
I was in that position for 2 hours straight watching the movie.
My dad went to switch off the tv when the movie ended and went into his room but did not close the door which means he was going to see me if i tried to go inside my room.
I went in anyways..and then he asked "who's that?".
A thought quickly came to mind and i decided to act on it.
I came back out..opened the door that led outside and went to sleep on the floor outside while ran after me.
He thought i was sleep-walking..and he just carried me to my room while i smiled mischieviously..cheesycheesy
.
Oya..share your own o..cheesycheesy

I wasn't permitted to watch tv except weekends or NTA news by 9pm. After school, i would watch tv till it was time for my dad to return home from work. Then, i would sprinke water on the 'hot' black & white tv to cool it; rush to my room; bring out big textbooks; scatter them on the bed & pretend as if i have been reading for 3hrs.

I hated pills. The day we changed the furniture, there were several pills i had hidden everywhere, especially inside the couch & seat covers.

I was learning how to smoke (with match sticks) in the sitting room. I thought i was home alone until i heard my dad's voice. I was confused. I threw the lit-up match stick under the sofa & ran out. Before i knew it, there was smoke everywhere. There was fire outbreak. We saved what we could. Till today, nobody knows what caused the fire!

can't remember jor!
It was a nollywood sha...
.
Lol@caracta's tricks.
I did similar things too.
.
I hated drugs so much that my mum would sit in front of me with a cane while watching me swallow.
This day, i just put the drugs in my mouth and spat it back into the cup of water as i pretended to swallow it.
Some drugs i kept in my socks...some i threw behind the door.
My mum knew i didn't take them but would search and search fruitlessly for them while i swear to have taken them!cheesycheesy

In order to read my comic books instead of my notebooks, I'd insert them in the middle of a textbook and pretend to be reading the textbook. My dad would see me and praise me, he'd use me to make perfect example for my siblings to emulate!

One of my numerous crimes was inflating my Junior WAEC fee like a PDP senator. I remember I presented popsie a looooong list of things needed to register for the exam, with 65% of the items being things I 'kurukerely' filled in there.
Chineke nna, come and see format.

Dad: Son, number 14 says "handling charging". What exactly is that?

Me: It's the levy that takes care of the charges for the handling.

Dad: Handling of what?

Me: It handles the charges.

Dad: Charges based on what exactly?

Me: The overall handling, of course.

Dad: How?

Me: I mean the charges.

Dad: Of what?!

Me: The handling!!!
