Kids‚ man. I'm not sure of the scientific way audacity is distributed‚ but kids have a lot of it and somehow make it cute. That audacity overload is especially interesting when you're the default parent—you know‚ the parent kids go to for literally everything as if there's not another fully capable adult in the house. Chances are if your children haven't sought you out while you were taking a shower so you could open up a pack of fruit snacks‚ then you're not the default parental unit. One parent captured exactly what it's like to be the default parent and shared it to TikTok‚ where the video has over 4 million views. Toniann Marchese went on a quick grocery run and *gasp* did not inform her children. Don't you fret‚ they're modern kids who know how to use modern means to get much-needed answers when mom is nowhere to be found. They went outside and rang the doorbell.Back when we were children‚ this would've done nothing but make the dogs bark‚ but for Marchese's kids‚ who are 3 and 6 years old‚ it's as good as a phone call. You may be questioning why this mom left her two young children home alone. She didn't. Their father was home‚ likely wondering why the children were playing so quietly. But. He. Was. Right. There. And the kids still bypassed him to talk to their mom through the Ring doorbell camera. It was pressing business‚ after all. "My tablet is dead‚" the 3-year-old said.The kids ignored Marchese's questions about where their dad was and continued to complain about their tablets. The entire situation is enough to make any default parent chuckle and maybe sob a little. Watch the urgent doorbell call below: @tinyann22 Moms can never get a minute of peace lol #momsoftiktok #momlife #ring #camera #kidsoftiktok And if you're skeptical that dad was within shouting distance‚ the mom of two uploaded a part two where dad comes into the frame. @tinyann22 Replying to @iustmerlp part 2… daddy was found!
