So I have a very sweet and sometimes feisty 6 year old daughter. I have often wondered where women learn the skills of getting what they want from men. What starts this behavior and how do they work on it? Well. . .I have found my answer. With their daddies of course. I know, I know Freud would love this, here is our story nonetheless.
L: Mommy I want a tv in my room.
Me: You are never getting a tv in your room.
L: That is fine, when daddy gets home I will just say to him "Daddy, I want a tv in my room. " He will get back in his car and go to the store and buy me a tv.
Me: HE WILL NOT!!
L: He won't because you will talk to him first and tell him to say no. So instead I will just go to drivers school, learn how to drive and then go to the store myself and get my tv and bring it home.
Me: You have to be sixteen to drive.
L: Oh.. . .
REALLY?!?!? Did I really have that conversation with my 6 year old? Yes I did. . .what do you think it will look like at 16? Yikes.
