Little boy about 5-6 years old: "oh, why not?".
Dad: "Because you're not"
Little boy: "Why not? That's so unfair. Frankie's got one"
Dad: "You're not having it, that's it and it's non-negotiable"
Little boy: (thinks) "What does non-negotiable mean?"
Dad: "It's when I get my way and you don't get yours. Now come on". |
