Rotten Is As Rotten Does

My daughter was tossing a napkin back and forth between her hands, when my son looked at her and said, “You’re going to drop that.”

She continued her juggling act and replied, “No, I won’t.”

Then my son raised up his hand and swiftly knocked the napkin to the floor and said, “Told ya you’d drop it.”

    I should talk, of all people but… There’s no fate but what you make. Looks like he’s internalized that pretty well.

    You know he’s just following the Annoying Brother Handbook, right? All the instructions are in there. My brothers knew it from cover to cover.

    this is why the great educators of the world have always been men. they really have a grasp on teaching through practical modalities.

    take this for an example. your daughter will always remember this because it was situational and involved her. she now knows something of the physics of napkins, as well as a bit of behavioural psychology surrounding napkin tossing.

    if anything your household is a little *too* educational.

    Ha! Ha! If your son had tried that with my daughter she’d have given him some of her choicest abuses… and probably a good kick, too 🙂
