A study out of the University of Washington Department of Psychology has revealed that children are 800% worse when their mothers are in the room. If the children are under ten, the percentage doubles to 1,600%.
The study followed 500 families and measured Neediness, Whine Crying, Shriek Screaming, Attempted Slapping, Forgetting How To Walk/Use Words, and Acting The Fool.
Professor of Marriage and Family Psychology, Dr. K.P Leibowitz gave us insight into the study. “What we found was that children as young as eight months-old could be playing happily but upon seeing their mother enter a room were 99.9% more likely to begin crying, release their bowels, and need her immediate attention. The .1% was a vision-impaired child but once he heard his mother’s voice he began throwing things and asked for a snack despite having just eaten. Truly fascinating.”
Paul Olsen, a father of three and study participant, was shocked by the study’s outcome. “I always wondered why she couldn’t get anything done. She’s literally their kryptonite and magnet at the same time. They’re pretty good for me, though.”
The research found that despite using the same disciplinary methods, 100% of the children were more responsive to instructions spoken at a normal voice level if they came from someone other than their mother. To receive similar behavioral results, the women in the group had to raise their voices to that of someone being attacked by several large animals.
“I didn’t need a study to tell me this,” said study participant and mother of four Lisa Powell in a sit-down home interview. “My kids act half their age the second they catch my scent. It’s why I’m now a high functioning alcoholic,” she slurred while pinning sensory tables and first day of school picture ideas.
Dr. Leibowitz is working on a spray that masks a mother’s natural pheromones to offer some relief but in the meantime recommends families invest in a bathroom with a working lock.

What about grandmothers who give in to everything all the time?! #mysonrulesmymom
The main reason kids are like that with their mom is because they know that no matter how they act we will still love them regardless
right??? 😂😭😂 Like they be screaming at me all day, dad comes and picks them up and its all coos and smiles.
OMG yes!!! But yeah we didn't need research to tell us this lol
Definitely true..my two year old son plays quietly in the room alone until I walk in and all hell breaks loose..the constant naughtiness ...finding the most dangerous things he can do to get my attention.....(sigh) it's a constant battle everyday in this stage he's in but he is glued to my hip and is my shadow everywhere I go!!
My daughter is definitely like this! She's ok even if I'm in another room but if she comes in the room I'm in or I enter the room she's in she does act totally different!
My son was like this before his little brother was born. Now he acts like this with my husband lol.
that's the opposite of my son the nurse's tell me he is grumpy and stuff then I come in and he is just fine lmao
So insanely true. I've been a Nanny for a decade and every time the mom gets home from work, instant whining and crying even though they were happily playing seconds earlier. How will I hope once I'm the mom?
wow. my daughter is always well behaved for my mom, but forget it when I come to pick her up, little angel becomes a damn demon....
lol taimiyah be having a bottle of Hennessey when she get fussy lol this is crazy maybe I should where Cologne lol
This is so true. Anywhere my 7 year old is with family (my mom or my husband) he acts good, well behaved, and can do things on his own. But the moment I step in things changed. All my family always tells me 'He was good all day, but the moment you stepped in he started acting out.' I wish this article would say more as to what can be done in this situation. @preggie.daily
😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is a known fact... you get that " he's an angel" I'm glad he's civilized with others.. Lol
I knew this was a joke...but I don't care. It's still true. ссылка
