Daddy Pranks Kids Telling Them They Have To Go To School Seven Days A Week After Lockdown

Liam Schewitz, from Cardiff, found himself put bang in the center of a trick war with his little girls Millie, 11, as well as eight-year-old Frankie, yet came out of it successful after revealing the youngsters an ‘official letter signed by Boris Johnson’ that said they would have to forego their weekends to make up for the time they missed out on throughout the school closures.

Speaking to Therednow, Liam claimed: “My youngest little girl Frankie had cautioned me that it was ‘Prank Week’ and told me that I was in large problem since she had actually some things planned.

Fortunately for Liam, when he disclosed the prank the youngsters took it extremely well – they’re probably simply thrilled they don’t have to go to school 7 days a week in the future.

“I could hear the eldest one in her bedroom saying, ‘it’s mandatory, it’s mandatory’ and she was telling her friends on the phone.” Fantastic effort, mate.

The pair even began doing a bit of online research to check if their dad was telling the truth, to which Liam convinced them ‘the government was drip feeding the letters out so there’s no loss of morale with kids‘.

The letter, which Liam found online, looked pretty official and was presented on government headed paper.

An excerpt from the mocked-up letter reads: “When school’s reopen, we will quickly make up for lost time by not only teaching your children Monday to Friday, but also making it compulsory for your child to attend school on Saturdays and Sundays for the first six months.” Chilling stuff for kids.

Keeping the prank up, Liam took his two daughters out to the park, but said their minds were still preoccupied with the letter.

Liam said: “They were asking, ‘What about the water parks? Who will go to the water parks if the kids are all at school?’ I said, ‘Don’t worry about that – I’ll go the water parks with my friends, while you’re in school.'”

Liam kept the prank up for a whole day, which is dedication to the cause.

He joked: “You’ve got to be committed to these things.”

Fortunately for Liam, when he revealed the prank the kids took it very well – they’re probably just delighted they don’t have to go to school seven days a week in the future.

And it’s not just Liam and the kids who got a kick out of it, a Twitter post in which he shared the prank has racked up over 80,000 likes and more than 9,000 retweets.

Liam said: “The response has been great. I’ve had people messaging me to say that they’ve needed cheering up and this has made their day.”

Keep up the good work, mate.
