I Know, I Know, I Sound Like a **tch

I find myself saying the same things over and over again; of course I do, I have three kids each with a selective hearing disorder. If you are a parent I’m sure you can relate. Who knows, maybe your parents said these to you (let’s hope we don’t end up sounding like our mothers).
