Me...'tidy your room'

Reece...'in a minute'

Me...'get to sleep'

Well give him a belt,it did us no arm

I have always considered him a well brought up child.

You have just proved it, 'in a minute isn't the language some children have been taught to use.

Your hard work is paying dividends and yes he is a typical teenager, weren't you just as bad?
I know I was.

Shaz..... you could always give him a taste of his own medicine....
Reece - Mum, can I have a biscuit?
You - In a minute Reece, in a minute.
Reece - Mum, can I go out with my friends?
You - In a minute Reece, in a minute.
Reece - Mum, will you give me my spending money?
You - In a minute Reece, in a minute.
Reece - are you making some tea mum?
You - in a minute, when I've finished watching TV.

I know for a fact that Reece is no different from many other young folk, and he is probably a darn sight better than most.
