The irony

My daughter is stubborn and would run anyways. She has to learn the hard way. One day I told her not to run because I was mopping the floors. She did a very cartoonish slip that you would eect to see happen on a Toon and Jerry cartoon. As she was running around the corner as fast as she could: both feet in the air and fell down hard on her back, knocking the air out of her lungs. She never ran in the house again.

thats sounds like something my mom would do

FYL for falling over, but you kinda deserved it for yelling at them just because they were running, you could have spoken to them nicely - unless you had warned them multiple times and they weren't listening, in which case I get it.

And that's why you don't leave the kitchen.

I just feel that you deserved it

I did this same thing with my child, except in the backyard with holes the dogs dug, and am now suffering through a torn ligament. Hang in there, OP.

That's what you get for leaving the kitchen xD

Swiffer collects dirt, where as used mops can grow bacteria. Switch to swiffer wet jet.

They don't know it's dangerous now, they just know they have a clumsy parent who likes to spontaneously fall and break dance.
