Remember back about a year ago and we were having trouble with a kid biting him and his recourse was to trick said kid into doing something bad then watch him get in trouble?
We've upped the ante if you will.
Today my child convinced all the kids at daycare (most older than him) that there were sharks in the bathroom.
Sharks. In the place where they disrobe and leave their genitals dangling with no protection. Awesome.
You see he has a method. It just takes one person to be convinced then the work is half done right?
So he convinced one. And they ran away from the bathroom screaming. Then they together convinced the rest of the room... leaving Susan with a room full of toddlers running away from the bathroom screaming, "AAHHHHH SHARKS!"
(Which I know provided endless entertainment for her.)
She said by the end of the day, the youngest toddler wouldn't even go near the bathroom.
And... my favorite part...
My son convinced a boy older than him to stand guard at the door while he peed. From what I understand, the exchange when like this:
Sam: "You watch me while I pee."
Boy: "Okay. I watch you while you pee.:
Sam: "You watch for SHARKS!"
And Boy then crouches down and keeps a look out for sharks.
This is the same child who also has me tell the elephants to be quiet under his bed.
And the same child who sometimes going around saying, "I'm a giant!" Except it doesn't come out giant. It comes out more like this (just listen because the video sucks).
Either he is going to have to use his powers for good, and not evil. Or I'm going to have to take up drinking for breakfast. Surely I have a few years to find out, right?
