Kids can be so gross! Are yours?

I love Malcolm in the Middle. Makes me appreciate my 9 year old so much.

Yep my girl's are gross too. Youngest is 13 and growing out of it FINALLY! Now I can get her to shower at least. Mother nature had to take care of the motivation issue, but at least she has started showering regular without threat of bodily harm or sleeping on the porch.

During the holidays while figuring out sleeping arrangments for company and such, my youngest daughter would raise holy heck and insist she would NOT sleep in her youngest brothers room because it REEKED.
Yeep. I dont WANT to know why either!

everyone talking about booger pickers..... at least your kids pick their own boogers.... my 2 yo daughter will not pick her own boogers but will ask her siblings if she can pick theirs and will do it if she catches them off guard.

my oldest (9yo now) used to have a bad habit of putting things in his diaper to save for later.... food included. there is nothing like having to pick old soggy cheetos off a baby's testicles...ewww!!!!

ALL my kids are grossssssss. They hock up lugies and spit them into cups and let them dry like that, they ash into half empty glasses of milk (They are all over 18), the never clean up after themselves unless me and Ken both get red in the face and yell loudly. I refuse to even GO in their bathroom.

OH this thread has made me laugh to the point of tears.

This thread has settled it for me. I will not be having children. I'll stick to chickens and the dog, thank you very much!

Yeah, my 3 younger brothers did pretty much everything everyone elses kids are doing. Not to mention that once my bro's reached a certain age, every sinlge tube of lotion, container of vaseline, and bottle of conditioner went missing within days of being purchased! Double yuck!!

And can anyone tell me why it seems like ALL little boys bedrooms seem to have the same smell? Like a musty odor mix of stale bread, old pee, sweat socks and slightly sour milk? My 3 brothers rooms always smelled like that, and now, despite all my efforts, my 4 sons' rooms smell that way too!

My daughters room is a mess, but it doesnt stink (thank goodness!) Although I have found cups with mold growing in them hidden in a closet! WHY??? Why do they hide the stuff?? Does the trip to the kitchen require a sherpa??

I once found an old, dead, dried-up lizard body under my sons' bed. EEEEKKK! No explanation, other than- It was cool, and didnt look like that when I put it there. Oh man, and I havent even reached the rebellious teenage stage yet.....

While I don't have children of my own my DH brought a little boy into my life with him.... talk about adjustment. SHEESH! I had never lived with a man before I lived with the DH. My family is all women... I WAS NOT PREPARED! I mean why would it ever cross my pea brain that pee would splash any where but in the bowl? Or that shaving is done at the bathroom sink... and coincidentally said sink get's covered with little black hairs... or that under the potty seat would EVER get THAT disgusting in less than a week... I mean COME ON!!! And don't get me started with that little boy... I was picking up his clothes after his bath one night and of course every time I grab those little jeans it never fails that a handful of tiny object's will fall out all over the floor, marbles, little rocks, GI joes, and what else... a tiny plastic tube with water and... dead worms. EWWWWW! And what is there favorite thing to do? They call it "crop dusting".... I had never heard of such a thing... until they walked past me while passing gas..... then announced "I'm crop dusting!" a moment later....
