"I am mad at you." Little boy pens angry note to his mum – and it's adorable!

We’ve all been there – our kids are mad at us for some reason or another, and they flounce around the house dramatically, wounded expressions on their faces.

Usually we just wait for them to naturally snap out of it, or else we give in and give them a cuddle, but in the meantime the stand-off can be brutal. Like when this little boy penned a note to his mum telling her he was going to tuck HIMSELF in. Ouch!

“Mommy, don’t come read with me,” the note scrawled in blue marker said. “I am mad at you and I will tuck my own self in. Senserly [sic] Owen.”

The note was shared on Reddit by the little boy’s mum’s cousin with the caption, “My cousin got her mommy privileges revoked for tonight.”

And the comments didn’t disappoint, with many people saying their child would do something similar.

“I legitimately expect a note like this in my future,” wrote one commenter. “My pre-schooler punishes me when I've been a ‘bad mummy’ by putting himself to bed.

“Yesterday he was displeased with something so sat in the driveway and threatened to let strangers come and get him so I wouldn't get to have him anymore.”

While another added: “I once saw a note from my daughter (she was about five at the time) that read, ‘Don't come in. I hate everyone. Especially Dad!’ I asked her the next morning and she couldn't remember why she was mad. Especially with me.”

Is this something you could see your little one do? We’d love to hear from you!

SHARE if this adorable note gave you a chuckle!
