The Kid Handbook

Theo was being argumentative and feisty on a recent morning, and I had had it. So when he demanded, "Why are you always bossing me around all the time?" I sarcastically replied, "Because it's in the parent handbook that parents are to boss their children around." Without missing a beat, he replied, "Well, the kid handbook says that kids are supposed to argue with their parents!"

Sometimes I lament the fact that he inherited my snark...
