Setting: Driving home from the YMCA where Leif had spent time in childcare.
Leif: A boy was saying mean things to me.
Me: Oh Leif, that's terrible. Did you tell him not to be mean to you?
Leif: No
Me: Well, next time someone is mean to you, you tell them to be
nice and if they continue, you tell someone in charge.
Leif: Okay
Me: What kind of things was he saying?
Leif: He was saying things like- "Stop telling me what to do, you're not my mommy".
Me: Leif, were you telling him what to do?
Leif: Well, yes!
Priceless.
