Despite your best efforts and several attempts to support your case, children often believe that they are experts in everything.

It can be very frustrating for a parent to have to deal with this feature all the time, but one mother’s letter to her 13-year-old son, in which she confronts the fact that he thought it was okay to set his own rules, has become very popular.

According to the mother, who uses the moniker Estella Havisham on Facebook, her adolescent needed to learn a lesson. Her lesson quickly went viral online.

Estella Havisham only intended for her Facebook post to be seen by her friends and family when she made the decision to try to teach her little son a lesson about acting his age (figuratively).

She was unaware that her account had a “public” viewing option, which meant that her letter immediately went viral. Before she realised it, it had become widely known and had gone viral as a result of the positive responses it received from individuals all around the world.

In the letter, her son – named Aaron – was rebuked for trying to be an adult before his time. Estella was fed up with her 13-year-old trying to make his own rules, and so warned him that if he continued she would begin to give him responsibilities more suited to his desired status.

The fed-up mom stated that he would be expected to stump up his share of the food bill, rent for the house, and any ‘maid service’ she provided, which presumably includes making dinners and doing his washing.

The letter reads: “I guess you will need a lesson in independence. Also, as you threw in my face that you are making money now, it will be easier to buy back all the items IO bought for you in the past. If you would like your lamp/ light bulbs or access to the internet, you will need to pay your share of the costs.”

“Also you will need to empty the trash Mon, Wed & Friday as well as sweep and vacuum those days. You will need to keep your bathroom clean weekly, prepare your own meals and clean up after yourself. If you fail to do so I will charge you a $30 maid fee for every day I have to do it. If you decide you would rather be MY CHILD again instead of a roommate, we can negotiate terms.”

Many online commenters commended her for the way she raised her children, while others felt she was too strict.Soon, Estella’s letter had been posted 160,000 times and got 85,000 likes on Facebook. After being criticised for “shaming” him online, she responded to the criticism by saying:

“Why humiliate him in public? I’m not. An accident occurred. I intended to post to only my immediate family and friends, so yesterday I was perplexed as to why I had received over 100 friend requests. I honestly believed that my account had been compromised in some way. Yes, I could remove it, but by this time, so many people have already read and seen it.

Many users of social media praised her firm position right away. Furthermore, it seems to have succeeded. The mother and son reportedly have a contract in place to keep Aaron in control, and he has picked up on her new guidelines. However, it appears that the letter was successful because Heidi and Aaron have now developed a contract with guidelines that Aaron appears to abide with.

“I’m not a bully dictator trying to ‘control’ my child. I am a parent who has every RIGHT to have rules, expectations, and consequences for my child.”

Consider you the mother went too far? Or was it okay for her to use her parental authority to set boundaries, requirements, and penalties for her own child?

One Sunday morning, the priest noticed Little Johnny was staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church.
It was covered with names, and small American flags were mounted on either side of it. The seven-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time.

So the priest walked up, stood beside the boy, and said quietly, “Good morning, Little Johnny.” “Good morning, Father” replied the young man still focused on Father,” replied the young man, still focused on the plaque. “Father Scott, what is this?” Little Johnny asked.

“Well, son, it’s a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service.” Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large plaque. Little Johnny’s voice was barely audible when he asked, “Which service, the 9:45 or the 11:15?”

A few days ago I received a friend request on FB from a young attractive guy about 28 years old… I was curious. I wanted to know why someone that young wanted to be my fb friend. So I accepted it. Then he started sending me private messages. He was very kind. He called me beautiful. He asked my age. I’m not a liar so I told him and reminded him I’m quite a bit his senior. And I let him talk a bit cos (truth be told) flattery ain’t all that bad.

We keep talking for a while and within a short time, he asked if we could talk about ‘ad*lt things’. I said ok. Then he replied with a face like. He said ‘thank you babe, you start.” So I did! I told him adult things like my knees and hips were hurting. My back acts up when it is cold like.

He said ‘thank you babe, you start.” So I did! I told him adult things like my knees and hips were hurting. My back acts up when it is cold outside. I explained that I have crazy insomnia, I toss and turn the entire night and that I often have leg cramps, especially when I try to sleep. I mentioned the scars from multiple surgeries and the limp I have from an old injury. And of course I had to throw in the need for daily fiber supplements to prevent passing gas. Can’t forget that one! I was waiting for him to answer me…He blocked me. He wanted to talk about adult things and then don’t take the heat! I think I’m just a bit too much woman for him to handle!

One of the funniest types of jokes we may hear is when somebody walks into a bar. Anytime you hear that opening line, you can almost guarantee that the punchline is going to be hilarious.

This joke begins in the opposite direction, with a drunk man stumbling out of a bar. Just because it is the opposite of what we usually find amusing, however, doesn’t mean that it is any less funny.

If it’s been a while since you had a good chuckle, we invite you to enjoy this joke from beginning to end. It’s a funny story that ends with a side-busting punchline.

A Drunk Man Stumbles Out of A Bar and sees two priests walking across the street.

He staggers toward the two priests and stops in front of them.

He turns to the first priest and proudly says, “I’m Jesus Christ!”

The first priest shakes his head and replies, “No, son, you’re not.”

He then turns to the second priest and says again, “I’m Jesus Christ!”

Again, the second priest replies, “No, son, you’re not.”

The drunk man finally says, “Follow me, I’ll prove it to you!”

Curious, the two priests follow behind him as he walks back into the bar.

Immediately upon entering, the bartender takes one look at the man and says,

“Jesus Christ, you’re here again?!”

Being a bus driver is a pretty tedious job. Even those who drive cross country are often bored by traveling the same routes day in and day out. However, sometimes that monotony is interrupted by some pretty bizarre incidents involving their passengers. Sometimes these moments can be funny or pretty entertaining, and then there are those times when bus drivers wish for one of those “boring” days. In this joke, a bus driver picks up a passenger that really tested the limits of his patience.

A bus driver was plying his regular driving route when an old lady got on the bus and sat behind the driver.  For every ten minutes into the ride, She kept asking the driver a question. The first ten minutes into the ride, the old woman piped up and asked the driver, “Have we reached Falls Creek yet, sonny?”

There are many different types of jokes, and perhaps you have a favorite. For some people, it is a joke that is on the inappropriate side, and for others, it could be a good dad joke.

One of the more popular types of jokes tends to be a blonde joke. That is, of course, unless you have blonde hair. Those jokes tend to be about how a blonde woman does something ridiculously stupid, but every once in a while, we hear about a blonde that does something brilliant. Check out the following blonde joke to see which will make you laugh this time.

A busty blonde woman walks into a New York bank and goes straight up to the counter.

“Hello,” the man behind the counter says to the woman. “How can I help you today?”

The blonde has to think for a moment and finally says, “I need a loan of two hundred and fifty dollars.”

The bank teller responds, “That’s not a problem, miss. We’ll need you to put something up as collateral.”

The blonde takes another moment to think and says, “I have a car. I’ll put that up!”

The bank teller pulls out a form and asks the blonde, “That would work. What kind of car is it?”

The blonde hands the teller her keys and answers, “it’s a bright orange lamborghini. It’s parked right outside.”

The blonde leaves as the teller finishes the form, dumbfounded by the transaction.

A week later, the blonde returns. She has the loan and all of the interest that gathered over the last week. She walks up to the same teller and hands him the money. He then returns her keys.

As the blonde is leaving, the teller can’t fight the urge to ask any longer. “Excuse, miss. I just have one question. Why did you put this four-hundred thousand car up as collateral for such a small amount of money?”

The blonde turns and replies, “Where else in New York City and I supposed to find parking for a week for as little as two-hundred and fifty dollars?”

There’s something heartwarming about watching an older couple out and about together. Those two people have likely been through their share of ups and downs, good times and bad, and know a thing or two about sacrificing for each other’s needs. This joke is a perfect example of the kind of love older couples have for each other and it starts with an older man purchasing a single hamburger meal.

The old man placed an order for one hambᴜrger, French fries, and a drink.

He ᴜnwrapped the plain hambᴜrger and carefᴜlly cᴜt it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

He then carefᴜlly coᴜnted oᴜt the French fries, dividing them into two piles, and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cᴜp down between them As he began to eat his few bites of hambᴜrger, the people aroᴜnd them were looking over and whispering.

Obvioᴜsly, they were thinking, ‘ That poor old coᴜple – all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.’

As the man began to eat his fries a yoᴜng man came to the table and politely offered to bᴜy another meal for the old coᴜple.

The old man said they were jᴜst fine – they were ᴜsed to sharing everything.

People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn’t eaten a bite.

She sat there watching her hᴜsband eat and occasionally taking tᴜrns sipping the drink.

Again, the yoᴜng man came over and begged them to let him bᴜy another meal for them. This time the old woman said ‘No, thank yoᴜ, we are ᴜsed to sharing everything.’

Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the yoᴜng man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked ‘What is it yoᴜ are waiting for?’

She answered……’THe TeeTH.

There’s a saying that I can remember my mother and grandmother referring to over and over again, a man may work from sun to sun but a woman’s work is never done. That was true in generations gone by but today, we often see that husbands pitch in and help take care of the work around the home. Of course, that is not true in every part of the world and in some cases, it is still considered the woman’s responsibility to clean, cook and care for the children. Some men may even try to exert this supposed authority on their wives even today, but as you are about to see, it can end up having the most hilarious results.

Three friends married women from different parts of the world. The first man married a Greek woman. He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day, he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.

The second man married a girl from Thailand. He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. The first day he didn’t see any results, but the next day he saw it was better.

By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the dishes were done, and there was a huge dinner on the table.

The third man married a girl from Texas. He ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed, and hot meals on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn’t see anything, the second day he didn’t see anything but by the third day, some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little out of his left eye and his arm was healed enough that he could fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher.

He still has some difficulty when he pees.
