One problem with disciplining Theo is that he's pretty darn good at using my words against me. I had a hard time coming up with a response this morning when we had this conversation:
Me: Theo, please go put that on the table.
Theo: Why?
Me: Because it's mine--it's not yours to be touching.
Theo: Okay, Mommy. My CD player is mine. It's not yours to be touching.
Well-played, Theo, well-played... About two weeks ago, I taped over the volume dial on his CD player because he kept turning it up too loud. This is apparently his way of letting me know not to do that again. :-)
