- When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it’s raining.
- We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on the television.
- The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are mum’s and dad’s laps.
- My head does not belong in the refrigerator.
- I will not bite the officer’s hand when he reaches in for dad’s drivers license.
- I will not use ‘roll around in the dirt’ as an option after just getting a bath.
- The cat is not a squeaky toy so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it’s usually not a good thing.
