Her mother had snatched her phone away from her hands. Kaite was lying on the couch using her phone and she had been lying there for hours. " Young lady, why not you go and do something more productive? Why not you go down to the park to take a stroll or even help me with some chores?" mother nagged.

I replied in exasperation," Ugh, mum! I'll do it later! Just not now." Katie snatched her phone back and started going back to scrolling through Instagram. Mother looked stunned at what Katie had just said. Her mother snatched her phone back and put it at a high place where Kaite could not reach. Mother yelled," I have done so much for you and yet you can't even help me with one chore? How ungrateful can you-"

" Mum! Can you just shut up? You are so noisy!" Katie shouted. At that moment she knew that she had gone too far. Her mother's eyes looked like they were filled with fire and she was raging. Just then, mother slapped Katie hard on her face. Katie yelped in pain, her mouth hung wide open and she looked pitifully at her mother's face. Tears filled Katie's eyes and her tears trickled down one by one. Both she and her mother just stared each other, one filled with anger and disappointment and one filled with shock and sadness.]]> 2023-07-17 07:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/esther_jaichandar/agvzr566a2r3j958/wish/2646249653 lin_zihrong https://padlet.com/esther_jaichandar/agvzr566a2r3j958/wish/2646249672 "Stop playing with your phone, finish your homework before you play!

So for the whole week, Jenny just focused on playing her mobile games.
 "Jenny! You have been glued to your mobile phone for an entire week, stop playing games and start doing your homework now!" Mother shouted.
But Jenny still did not budge and continued playing her phone as she thought her mother would just leave her alone after nagging at her. But a few seconds later, her mother continued nagging. 
"Stop now or i am going to confiscate your phone."  
Upon hearing this, Jenny was enraged hearing that it was her holiday but she still could not enjoy it to the fullest, so she argued back.
"Mum, stop interfering with what i do, after i finish playing, i will naturally do my homework-"
" You have been playing for days now and you still have not finished with your game?"
After exclaiming, Mother confiscated her phone. ]]> 2023-07-17 07:24:11 UTC https://padlet.com/esther_jaichandar/agvzr566a2r3j958/wish/2646250091 https://padlet.com/esther_jaichandar/agvzr566a2r3j958/wish/2646250135 Lily was scrolling through her phone laughing at her friend's new post on Instagram when her mom stormed into her room and yelled, "Can you get off your phone and focus on revising for your ex-"

A slap landed on Lily's face. "How dare you speak to your mom that way" Mother roared.
