For whatever reason, Theo occasionally slips into the role of the Rules Police. Which can be slightly embarrassing. The other day, we were in the BART station, waiting for the train, and he pointed to a woman with a stroller and yelled in horror, "HEY! That woman took a stroller on the escalator!!!" Which actually is somewhat foolhardy and against the rules, but I'm not sure she needs to be policed by a five-year-old.
Later the same day, we walked by a no-smoking area where someone was violating the rules, and Theo pointed and said loudly, "That man is smoking!!!" Again, he was right, but I'm not sure he needs to be the Tobacco Police.
Sergeant Theo, reporting for duty!
