All annoying moms who stick in the phoneinstead of looking after the baby in the playground. After all, while she is flipping through the Instagram ribbon, the child is entertained from the heart: she eats sand and cigarette butts, a yard cat drags by the tail, picks up other kids, or just splashes around in a pool. But at home, at home, after all, you can finally afford to be a little alone with the phone! There, no one will look at you with unconcealed disgust simply because you wanted to look out of the daily maternal routine at least into the virtual world. 37-year-old Ellen Porrit, the mother of a two-year-old tomboy named Zeb, also thought so. It is in the past tense. Because the phone for her now is forbidden entertainment. It is absolutely impossible to let her baby out of sight. It’s more expensive. “I wasn’t with him for just two minutes! They called me for work, and I left the room so that Zeb would not interfere with speaking. He watched TV, nothing foreshadowed troubles. I could not have imagined that her son would arrange a small apocalypse in a single room, ”the woman said on Instagram. For those two minutes that Ellen spoke on the phone, Zeb really had a lot. For example, demonstrated the features of scrupulousness in character. The boy found a jar of black paint and used it for its intended purpose: carefully smeared it on the carpet, sofa, walls, stairs, spoiled all the posters of the older sister, painted himself. He didn’t even spare the family’s pet: the red dog was pretty dark. “Who did this?” - the mother asked the obvious question in horror. “I!” The baby answered proudly. “My husband said that Jackson Pollock had a lot of fun in our living room (avant-garde artist. - Ed.). We are now waiting for the third baby, and we don’t need extra expenses for repairs. But Zeb obviously did not spoil everything on purpose. He did not understand that he was doing something bad, ”said Ellen, and we breathed out: they would not punish the boy for his pranks. But they will certainly tell you that paints for children are not a toy.
