My friend asked me if I could watch her 5 year old for a few hours because she had some last minute work thing and I was like sure how hard can it be right so I don’t have kids but I figured out cartoons and snacks would do the job. The first hour was fine. We watched cocomelon lane on netflix and i gave him some juice and snacks so everything is fine then out of nowhere this kid goes crazy. He starts sprinting around my apartment screaming about being a superhero and climbs onto my couch and launches himself off it like he’s trying to take flight. I was trying to get him to sit down but he’s just too fast and I was too confused like I just didn’t know what to do. He somehow even found my toothbrush and started banging it against the floor while yelling something about dragons or some shit. I genuinely considered calling my friend and telling her to come get him immediately. By the time my friend came back the place was a disaster and I was sweating like crazy and her kid was calmly eating crackers on the floor like nothing happened. I don’t know how parents do this every day.
tl:dr I watched my friend’s 5 year old, he turned my place upside down for hours and when she came back he was just quietly eating crackers like nothing happened
