Oh, What A Kid!

Hey kids, what do you do when your mum asks you to do some housework? Do you willingly obey your mum? Or do you do it grudgingly? Maybe some of you just ignore your mum and carry on doing what you are doing.

But for an 11-year-old German boy, he did not choose any of the above 3 choices when his mum asked him to pick up paper on the floor on Monday. Instead he phoned the 110 police emergency number to complain he was being made to do “forced labour.” Oh, what a kid! Lol!

German boy told to clean up calls cops over 'forced labour'

The boy from the western city of Aachen phoned police to lodge his complaint, saying: “I have to work all day long. I haven’t any free time.”

His unidentified mother later told police her son had been complaining repeatedly over the school holidays of having to help around the house, and had repeatedly threatened to call the police over such “forced labour”.

A transcript of the conversation, printed in local German newspapers, revealed the officer asking the boy to describe the kind of “forced labour” he was forced to do.

The boy replied that he had to clean the home and terrace.

And when asked if he knew what forced labour was, the boy said he did, and the police officer asked to speak to his mother.

The mother explained her son had called after being asked to pick up paper from the floor, adding: “He plays all day long and when told to tidy up what he’s done, he calls it forced labour.”
