The Next Generation of Snark
Actual conversation between The Mother Hen and The Tyrant:
The Mother Hen: “Stop acting like a barbarian and eating with your hands!”
The Tyrant: “I am not a barbarian! Forget it! I am not eating!” <she throws chicken back on her plate>
Me: “Just ignore her, honey. I know you can do it, you ignored me earlier.”
The Tyrant: “Okay, I will.” <goes back to eating with her hands>
The Mother Hen: “Stop it! You have rice in your hair!”
The Tyrant: “I am sorry, Daddy. Did you say something?”
Wow, good luck with that one. I’m a step dad, but mine is sixteen. She just glares at me sometimes…
This is called sibling bonding, right!
Now, this brings up a good theory. Is snark a result of nature or nurture? 🙂
Mike, I am not worried. She gets her sense of snark from her father and I. They are all sweet while they are sleeping though! 😉
This all begins once they start talking. Or so I’m learning.
