kids are kids

So everyone is leaving for work or volunteerism this week. My sis went to Sri Lanka 2 days ago. Today my cousin will venture off to Japan to teach english. Makes me want to travel too.
Yesterday, work was just so tiring. At one point in the gym, all the therapists were having trouble controlling their misbehaving kids that we just had to laugh. Kids are kids and they will test you to the limit of patience. I had kids who pushed my buttons harder on each coming sessions.
1) saying no to bursting into fake tears. I learned to ignore them.
2) I'm going to tell mommy: This is a hard one. I respond "go ahead, and tell your mommy... I'm going to tell your teacher".
Kids will do anything to get what they want.
