It's Just a Game!


I worked late last night and didn't get home until after the kids were in bed.
Mike warned me that last night Quinn "accidently" watched some of the American Gladiator Show. He watched someone hit someone else with a bat-type of thing.
Q - That's not nice.
M - It's okay. It's just a game.
So Quinn hit Mike.
M - Ow. You do not hit. You need to take a "time-out." (There are two things that do not require a warning from us to give Quinn a time-out; hitting someone and throwing toys. These two behaviors are, in my opinion, unacceptable, even for boys.)
Q - It's okay, Daddy. It's just a game.
This resulted in an explanation that he needs to ask first before playing that game with anyone and also, he had to take his 3 minute "time-out."
All day today Quinn has been asking to wrestle. As soon as Mike got home they had a chance to play. First they pretended to have bats and hit each other with them. Then they pretended to climb rings and try to knock each other down.

So funny! No boys here. I haven't had to deal with any wrestling or anything. But... I do have TONS of PINK stuff. Which is worse?!
