Corrective Parenting

"Daaaaaaaaaddddddddddddd, I don't want to diiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeee."

If you heard this sound, wouldn't you call the police? Like, RIGHT AWAY?!

I would too. Fortunately, this came from our 5-year old, who was playing his XBox with his dad. Perhap at some point in the game, Connor was on the losing end of their Lego Batman team. Who knows. But when he said it, the statement went through most of the octaves that he can use in his voice.

"Connor," Scott began to reprimand him. "Quit yer crying."

"Dad, I'm not crying... I'm whining."
