DS (3.5) stood on a container full of toys to reach the net full of stuffed animals/soft toys. I asked him not to because we just cleaned them up yesterday. He ignored me, of course, & pulled 1 toy & they all came down. "Oopsy!" he says. "DS! I told you not to do that. Now it's a big mess!" I said. "But I said 'oopsy!' " he says, as if that makes it ok!

My dd10 doesn't want me to give her kisses on her boo boos anymore b/c she knows it doesn't help. Confused

It does too help!! <Star>

That is like my dd when she lost her first tooth (age 5 or 6), I said to her you have to save that and tonight the toothfairy will take your tooth and leave you money. She gives me this very exasperated look (like I am too old for that stuff) and says, is the tooth fairy real or made up? Now (she is 8 years old) she plays along because she knows I like it. But she always knew this wasn't real.
