So at a playdate today Brady's friend threw some mulch from the playground and his Mom quickly reprimanded him. What does Brady immediately do? Yup, throw a handful of mulch at me.
To which I said, "Brady, your friend was just told not to do that and you shouldn't either."
He answered, "But you're a different mom, so I thought you might have a different rule."
That's my standard line when he asks "Why does so-and-so get to do X and I don't!" I tell him, so-and-so's mom may have different rules than me. I guess just like brain development, he threw that one back to me too! Good try, kiddo, but it won't work!
