I did hear most of those when I was growing up, but it was my dad that liked to tell use that money doesn't grow on trees.

@Ganma7 I guess dads are more concerned with teaching us about economic facts of life.

What about "Stop running around the house!"?

Some of those are pretty common where I live too, but I guess the list would be different based on country and culture.

It is never easy to be a mom but that is so rewarding even without monetary compensation! One can never return in adequate measure mom's love for her children. A child is always a child whether six or sixty! siva

I used the turn the car around a lot. It would usually work, but not always. I made sure I never said the first one, because that's the one that annoyed me the most as a child.
