I have to wonder if I've failed at parenting somehow-- I've never been barred from either of my kids' rooms.
Although, for the first time, Nate requested I leave the examination room when the doc checked out the boy equipment.
'Why We Fight'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Why am I suddenly standing in the middle of this cornfield?
The worst part is that Owen knows he's not supposed to say it. He's the one arguing for bad. Liv KNOWS it's not a proper word for them to use but keeps repeating, "FUCKING IS A NICE WORD."
This isn't a fight I can win. I know they've heard me say it. I know this is my fault, really. They don't call people assholes or douchebags or anything like that. She just happens to have latched on to this adjective usage and continues with it because she knows it drives me crazy. I feel bad for Owen. He's a strict rule fellow and it frustrates him that she blatantly flouts rules. It almost brings him to tears.
It's the center of the sign that makes it for me. "See this happy smiling pink girl full of love? Yeah. NO. YOU DO NOT GET THAT."

Greatest. Photo. Ever.

Oh yeah! I was going to comment on that, but I was too busy laughing at the Death Glare.

Oh, that's classic!

Aw, poor noodle. Buck up, kiddo, it's not going to get any better.
Does conspiring work with him, Cash? Can you take him aside and say, "The only reason she keeps arguing is because she knows it makes you crazy, so if you stop, she probably will too."
Or is that just asking for hell on wheels?
"Conversations usually end when one person calls the other a douchebag," Cash.

Unfortunately, this. I tried to tell him to ignore her and he just gets more worked up.
We've ended with a truce over chocolate teddy grahams.
Or chocolate fucking teddy grahams.
