This is actually hanging above my kids' toilet. It doesn't work.[/caption]
It’s my birthday today, and as a special gift to me, I asked my kids to flush their toilet.
You see, my three children (ages 15, 15 and 12) share a bathroom and it’s a rare morning when I don’t have to flush for them.
Maybe it’s the muscular exertion required to depress the flusher that stops them. Maybe it takes too much time out of their very full schedules. Maybe, and very likely, they’re trying to drive me insane. Because despite the constant nagging, yelling, threatening and even signage, they consistently fail at this one very simple task.
