We’ve all experienced them: those uninvited guests who somehow end up in your home, and you can’t bring yourself to say “no.” You might feel a nudge from your partner when you utter, “Of course you can stay!” You know exactly who I’m referring to. Interestingly, there are eight striking parallels between toddlers and those less-than-welcome visitors.
1. They Steal Your Personal Items
Whether it’s your deodorant, toothbrush, or even that fancy loofah, toddlers and uninvited guests have little regard for personal belongings. Seriously, put my stuff down!
2. They Devour All Your Food
Their strategies might differ—toddlers might snatch food right off your plate, while uninvited guests wait until you’re asleep to raid the pantry—but the outcome is the same: empty cupboards and crumbs galore.
3. They Leave a Mess
The crumbs are just the beginning. The chaos expands to clothes strewn across the guest room and toys scattered throughout every corner of the house. It seems only the parent or happy host is fit to clean up after them.
4. They Create Noise at All Hours
And not just any noise; we’re talking about loud, disruptive sounds. You find yourself jolted awake, rushing to investigate. With toddlers, it could be a nightmare, while UGs might just be struggling with your high-tech TV remote.
5. They Take Over the TV
Did you have plans to watch your favorite show? Forget it! Toddlers and uninvited guests alike will latch onto whatever marathon is on, insisting on rewatching every episode for the umpteenth time.
6. They Strut Around in the Buff
No matter how long you’ve known your uninvited guest, nobody wants to see that. And let’s not forget about the little one who thinks wearing just a diaper is a fashion statement.
7. They Skip Bath Time
You’d think if they’re going to take your loofah, they might also grab some soap. And just a heads up to my toddler: splashing around until the bathroom resembles a flood zone does not count as a proper bath.
8. They Hog Your Phone Line
While UGs might monopolize the phone with long-distance calls, toddlers will commandeer your phone for hours, capturing blurry snapshots of feet and walls as if they’re preparing a portfolio for the paparazzi.
At the end of the day, at least my toddlers have their cuteness going for them. Though, with the UG using all my toiletries, they might not be looking too shabby either!
