http://www.raisingbakersfield.com/home/Blog/Christina/26535 We might have to get rid of our television for awhile. The commercials are putting my kids in this frame of mind where they realize that you are actually supposed to clean your house. Recently I've heard, &quot;Mom, our ground is dirty, we need 'Bam! The dirt is gone'.&quot;&nbsp; Today after seeing an ad for toilet bowl cleaner, Kaitlynn told me that we have monsters in our toilet and we need to clean them out.&nbsp; Whenever they finish cleaning their rooms, they like to come see mine and lecture me on how MY room needs to be picked up.&nbsp; They seem to enjoy pointing out when they don't have any clean socks or underwear.......And you'd burst into laughter if you've ever seen their reaction when they walk into a clean house after returning&nbsp;home&nbsp;from school. What am I teaching these kids?!?! We might have to get rid of our television for awhile.

Send them to my house for a day, they'll think your house is spotless! As for throwing away the television? Nah, just switch over to PBS, they don't have those pesky cleaning commercials. Maybe if Mr. Clean was real,&nbsp; we <i>would</i> have clean houses--that is to say, if we coud get a genie to help around the house! Poof! Mess-be-gone.</p> <br /> http://www.raisingbakersfield.com/home/Blog/Christina/26535/#c_237242 http://www.raisingbakersfield.com/home/Blog/Christina/26535/#c_237242 <p>LOL!
