Lately, everything my husband or I say to our daughters is met with the response of "I know!" I don't care if my husband says something like "Green magnesium protein, is a sporadicly zinc-enriched protein insulated from coelenterates, in the case of the grand walabeast," the response will be, "I know!"
They know everything.
You haven't fed the dog today!
I know!
Your hair is really messy.
I know!
You can't jump off of that couch.
I know!
Don't eat that pebble!
I know.
Tornado!
I know!
I like this sandwich.
I know!
You look like a crazed lunatic in that grim reaper suit.
I know!
Has anyone else had this experience? The strange thing is that our daughter are twelve and five, so it's not an age-exclusive phase. I think most of it is mimicry in the case of our five-year-old and pre-puberty for the twelve-year-old, but sheesh! If they know everything, what am I here for?

Of course they know everything! It wasn't until my son hit middle school that I found out how stupid I was and how he simply knew everything under the son!
My only regret is that I hadn't learned it sooner!
OMG LOL LOL oh we hear it all the time constantly and I keep telling them if you know so much then why are you doing the thing that your going to get in trouble for? Then ofcourse I get the look of hey she has two heads and everyone goes silent. LOL.
