Dad Is In Awe After Discovering That His Kids Were The Brains Behind His Wife’s Mischievous Texts
There's one more group of children who are looking for trouble, but in a good and, thus, funny way.
Michael Cruz Kayne thought he was getting a text from his wife, but the message had a much sneakier source. The whole thing started when his kids found a way into their mother’s computer and used it to send him a very convincing plea for extra screen time.
What followed was a classic kid move, part clever, part chaotic, and completely transparent once Michael caught on. The message claimed the children had been through a lot at school and deserved a reward, which, naturally, meant gadgets and Roblox during school hours.
That was only the beginning, because the screenshots quickly turned into a story people could not stop sharing.
Kids are mischievous geniuses with regards to getting everything that they might want.

What's more, this person's children are living proof of it.

The dance was over extremely quickly, and Michael soon sent the screenshots to his wife to see what their children were doing. His wife received the screenshot, to which she was surprised and asked who wrote the text.
This incited Michael's reaction, and he responded, "Your scheming kids."
That was the moment the prank fell apart.

Regardless, the dance was over before it even began. However, it isn't yet known what happened later, whether they got rebuffed, commended, or if there's some type of sweet revenge coming up, but what is most certainly known is that people loved the story.
The tweet generated various stories, with individuals sharing what strategies their children used.

Some kids got their parents' password by using the "forgot password" option, which sends an email to the already opened email account.
