Treacly Mother’s Day sentiments be gone.<\/p>\n
To promote her new humor book, “How Not To Calm Your Child On An Airplane,”<\/a> writer and comedian Johanna Stein<\/a> asked a group of children what they’ve always wanted to say to their moms — and compiled their hilariously honest answers.<\/p>\n “Thanks for using me as an excuse to get out of social obligations,” one youngster answered. Oof.<\/p>\n “I wanted to shoot a rebuttal to all those sappy, marketing videos that seem to show up around Mother’s Day,” Stein told The Huffington Post. “Don\u2019t get me wrong — those sappy videos make me cry harder than anyone on the planet. In fact, that\u2019s probably why I felt the need to make fun of them. So I could get back at those folks for making my eyes so puffy.”<\/p>\n To see what your kids have always been thinking, check out the video yourself.
