Arguing with a 4 year old is a losing battle
I got in an argument with Nevaeh today.
Losing battle.
Here's why: She is smarter than me. She is witty. Her logical ways of thinking are way beyond anything I can come up with.
I tell her tantrums are not acceptable.
Her witty comeback: "you throw tantrums when you don't get your way"
I thought a quick explanation of the difference between kid tantrums and grown ups getting upset would end the conversation.. Wrong.
So. Completely. Wrong.
She just looks at me, wheels turning, innocence in those big blue eyes sparkling.
She opens her mouth and says
"Well losing your shit isn't acceptable"
Crossing her arms, she turns away and that's the end of the argument. She won.
If that girl was on stage, it would have been her mic drop moment.
