Mum shows her hilarious alternative method to not yell at her kids in public

A mum that's working smarter, not harder!

Another parenting challenge we all face is when you try to get your kids to leave somewhere they don't want to leave (park, playground, party), you are no doubt familiar with the absolute self-control you have to exercise not to lose it, and start yelling.

In a viral TikTok video from @califalonemom, she revealed that she calls for her children through a microphone as other parents laugh and start clapping.

"I learned from the voice on the Matterhorn at Disneyland. 'Remain seated please'," mum Vanessa joked in the comments.

Parents were in love with her hilarious tactic, commenting that they thought it was "genius".

"And I'd be there like 'See guys the lady with the microphone said it's time to leave'," said one parent.

"I'd be the parent asking if I could borrow that," said another.

Other parents shared how the heck they manage to get their kids to leave somewhere they don't want to leave.

"Today at the park, I ran screaming 'The floor is LAVAAA!! GET TO THE CAAAR'. It worked like a charm," one mum shared.

Another added, "I would use my flight attendant voice for this. 'Attention children, the car will be leaving in approximately 5 minutes, please make your way to the boarding area'."
