9-year-old girl calls 911 to report parents after she was asked to clean her room

Parenting can be tricky as two parents from Simcoe, Ontario, recently found out after their nine-year-old called 911 on them because she was asked to clean her room. The incident came to light after the Ontario Provincial Police's (OPP) Norfolk Detachment were called to the family's residence this past Saturday, December 8.

According to the Toronto Star, the officers rushed to the home, located approximately 90 miles southwest of Toronto, after receiving a call from a nine-year-old girl. But when they reached the home, they found that it was a false alarm. The girl had reportedly dialed the police because she was upset her parents had asked her to clean her room.

Constable Ed Sanchuk confirmed the story and said officers who responded to the scene found it was a girl throwing a tantrum. "She didn't like the fact her mother told her to clean her room so she contacted authorities," he said.
