“My kids won’t stop talking” says Mum

1
A MOTHER OF TWO from Surrey has reportedly lost the ability to hear silence after being subjected to 3 years of constant chatter.

Mrs Land bravely opened up about her ordeal, which has prompted scientists to recognise this debilitating condition as Toddler Induced Tinnitus, or TIT for short.

“After having children, I always knew I had a fairly big case of TIT, I just didn’t realise my TIT was so bad.” the brave Mother told our reporter, over a stream of incessant ramblings from her children about bum bums and Peppa Pig.

“Sometimes I

Mrs Land tried to demonstrate her struggle by allowing her children to be interviewed:

“9 take away 1 is 5. I want chocolate for dinner. What is your name? Why are you wearing that top? Do you want to play Hide and Seek? My best friend is called Balloon Face. Wait, where is Mummy?”

Our reporter was last seen running for the hills.

Scientists have labelled this reaction a classic case of TIT avoidance.

“See!” shouted Mrs Land from behind the locked pantry door. “Told you.”

Gaa Gaa Land is a collection of ramblings from a stay at home mum of two. Although said ramblings might veer into the serious from time to time, this blog is largely satire. GGL uses humour, irony and exaggeration to amplify this crazy parenting ride, but everything is from real life. It’s all true. Even the embarrassing bits. N is in her mid late thirties and enjoys writing, F1, early 2000’s UK Gladiators, picking play doh out of her hair, cooking, Game of Thrones, stationary, innuendo and swearing. She loves her kids, husband, friends, the Dalai Lama, Bjork and is partial to a Cliff Richard calendar (classic examples of brilliance – 1996 and 2010). She also thinks it’s weird writing in the third person.
