One of the critical things she’s teaching her 10-year-old son is how to keep the toilet seat down. Her young son doesn’t quite get the reason why.

“I told him because Mommy’s falling into it at 2 in the morning. Then I’m trying to teach him how to shake it at the end. He doesn’t want to touch it.”
