Imagine being home with your husband and your 3 year old daughter. You read your magazine on the couch as Darren prepares dinner and Sami played on the living room floor. Suddenly, you smell something. Like something is burning."Darren, it smells like something's gonna be way too roasted" you say, not taking your eyes off the magazine. "Oh sh- I forgot!" he says. You heard the oven opening and Darren coughing. "And now dinner is ruined. Fuck this" he exclaims. You saw your daughter gasping, her face was precious. Before you could say anything to Darren about swearing in front of your daughter, Sami said "Daddy, did you say the F word?". Darren tried to hide his smile and answers "What? No I didn't" "You know what happen when you say a bad word, right?" she said, sounding like you when you scold her. She went to the kitchen, took her father's hand, and put him in the corner. You immediatly laugh at the view of your daughter scolding Darren. "Mommy. That's not funny" Sami exclaims, very serious. "Yeah, I know sweetie. I'm sorry" you answer. You desperately bite your lip, trying not to laugh again. "We don't say bad words in this house Daddy. I've already told you". Sami went back to her toys as Darren mouths to you 'God, she's bossy'. You silently laugh, and take a picture of him standing in that corner, face to the wall. He eventually fake cries a little like Sami does when she's punished. A few minutes after, Darren was free to go back in the kitchen. While you tweeted the picture you take earlier, Darren tweeted too "I just got scolded by Sami... Wait, am I the parent or the child in this story?"
