My 5-year-old child blames her bad behavior at Elf on the shelf

A five-year-old has defeated her mother with the family ELF on the shelf.

Her mother is now worried about how to handle things, feeling like her daughter has played the last unseen card.

“She’s lying to me”

In a post on Reddit, she explains:

“My daughter (5) continues to do unfulfilled things and says the elf on the shelf did it.

“Last night, the elf went into the cotton balls and the Maja Q and made the snowfall on the Banja counter. My daughter, this afternoon came out of the bath and said Mom, the elf made the snowfall with her flossersAlso!

“She definitely knows that Kukuk didn’t do so – and they arranged the flossers. So she is lying to me.”

Now, the mother is facing the moral dilemma of balancing honesty by her daughter, with the preservation of Christmas magic.

“So she should know that Kukuk is false? But maybe not, ”she thinks.

“I don’t know what to do. She continues to do this kind of thing and I’m just in loss. I do nothing? ”

“Looks like karma”

The comment section offered security, suggesting that behavior is harmless and imaginative.

“It looks like she just wants to play the game too,” wrote one commentator.

“Oh, how the curves have come,” another added.

Some were more critical.

“You teach her that this lifeless object is” doing “these” works “, but when she does the same, you want to know if you should punish her?” Read a harsh response.

And this group member simply replied, “It looks like Karma.”

“More magical”

In a subsequent comment, the mother explained her position, insisting she was not seeking to punish her child.

“I’m not upset with her at all and I’m surprised by everything she has made the elf. I just wanted to know if I had to talk to her about the owl and it’s true, ”she said.

While she initially worried that her daughter’s involvement could ruin magic, she has made a decision since then.

“I was worried that doing this was no longer magical, but I think the perspectives here are right,” she wrote.

“I decided after receiving an answer that I will not talk to her and I will just continue if she doesn’t ask me.”

After all, she has embraced Christmas creativity.

“It’s more magical she is participating in,” she concluded.
