How to persuade your mum!

1. How to persuade your mum! By Riley Prynne and Ben Harrison

2. Are you kept awake at night by the sound of your mum screaming? Do you get locked in the house? Can you get any peace with your mum in the house? Well, chances are you have an annoying mum!

3. Do not despair! Help is at hand. Mums are a rather dim-witted species. Follow these step by step instructions and you will find yourself with a very helpful mum.

4. What you need: • Worthy reward • List of boring jobs appropriate for mums • Key to the job room • Pink, furry slippers • Chair strong enough to be used as a barracade

5. What you need to do: • First, place the chair on one side of a door, ready to act as a barricade. • Next, place the reward on the chair, so that it will be tempting. • Now, call your mum up to the room and hand her the list of jobs. • After that, close the door quietly and barricade it with the chair. • Then, get your mum to do the jobs, whilst wearing the slippers. • Meanwhile, tip-toe away, remembering to lock the door behind you. • Finally, sit back and enjoy your trained mum. Remember to present her with the worthy reward to keep her calm!

6. Important note: Mothers who are tricked can be a sickening sight. They may say that they will never do anything annoying again. But, do not be fooled, they are simply trying to escapeso that they can be annoying to you again!
