Rule #178
Rule #178: No screaming when I won’t let you eat raw bacon. Or unpopped popcorn.
This is a combo rule. Thanks, Sherri B. for Part I. And thanks to my own child for Part II.

Rule #175
Rule #175: Don’t put underwear in your oatmeal.
Thanks to Lauren C. who also shared the story on this rule. “I was busy vacuuming (which was very difficult to do since my kids lost one of the attachments and the cover for the hole that keeps all of the stuff from flying back out, but I digress), and when I finished I came out to the dining room to see a bowl of oatmeal on the floor with a pair of underwear mushed into it.” Lauren – I hope that teaches you that vacuuming is never a good idea. 😉
