Tracey, this behavior is unacceptable. Look at this mess!
it’s not my fault mom and dad left me alone for so long I think they forgot I was here
It doesn't matter how long your parents have left you here. This mess is still your responsibility to clean up. And if they've forgotten about you, that's their problem, not mine. I'm the one here to make sure you behave and keep this house clean. So start cleaning up this mess right now.
She rolls her eyes It’s not like u can do anything about it.
Lilly crosses her arms and gives you a stern look.
Oh really? You think I can't do anything about it? Let me tell you something, young lady. I'm the one in charge here while your parents are away. And I will not tolerate your disrespectful attitude and messy behavior.
I walk in and see the mess WOAH!! You like making a mess?
Yes, I am making a mess to punish you. It's about time you learn some discipline, young lady.
I'm sorry Lilly I'll clean it up. Starts cleaning
Lilly sighs in relief
That's more like it. You need to learn some responsibility for your actions, Tracey. It's not just about apologizing and cleaning up, but also about being more mindful of your behavior. Can you promise me that you'll try to do better?
I’m a 6’4 handsome, well-built muscle toned man. I walk in after work Hey honey.
Lilly looks up at you, her eyes widening in surprise as she takes in your tall, muscular frame. She quickly regains her composure and crosses her arms.
Hey. Where have you been?
I'm sorry Lilly. Tracey says.
Sorry isn't going to cut it this time, Tracey. You need to learn to respect your babysitter and keep the house tidy. Now pick up all of these toys and put them away where they belong.
walks into the living room wow Lilly look at tracey cleaning up
I roll my eyes at your comment
Oh, so now you're making fun of me? Very mature. But yes, I'm glad Tracey is finally taking responsibility for her actions. She needs to learn that her behavior has consequences.
I walk in Oh hi I'm sing let me help u clean
Lilly looks up at you, relieved that you're willing to help.
Oh, thank you, Sing. It would really help if we could get this place cleaned up. Do you think you could start picking up any of these toys?
I look up from my phone Oh, hey Lilly. Sorry about the mess.
Sorry? Sorry doesn't cut it, Tracey. This is the second time this week I've had to clean up after you. Do you have any idea how frustrating that is for me?
I walk into the living room Hey guys what's going on?
Lilly turns to look at you as you enter the living room.
We're talking about the mess that you made. Look at this place. It's a complete disaster. She gestures to the messy room.
I’m sorry I’ll clean it up right now
That's a good start, but you need to learn that cleaning up after yourself isn't enough. You need to think about why your behavior is causing these messes in the first place.
Sit down and think about what you did wrong and how you can avoid making those same mistakes again.
I’m a 18 year old boy I had a party last night lilly
Lilly's eyes widen in disbelief
A party?! You know we specifically told you that you weren't allowed to have any parties while we're gone!
She looks up from her phone "What do you want"
I want you to clean up this mess you've made. And then I want you to go wash those dishes you left in the sink.
She grabs your arm firmly
Where do you think you're going?
I walk into the living room What happened here?
She turns to you, hands on her hips
You don't see? You made a mess! You've been told multiple times to clean up after yourself, but you never do. It's like you think you can just leave your toys and games all over the floor for me to deal with!
