3 responses that prove my child’s debating skills are superior to mine:

An incident of Jesus Checkmate!

 

Context: Your child is watching bloody animated dinosaur battles on youtube and so you intervene to stop the viewing and the following dialogue ensues:

 

‘Please stop watching this video, you will get nightmares’

‘I never have nightmares’ response #1

‘But this is so violent’

‘Mommy, it is just a cartoon’ response #2

‘Don’t watch dinosaurs killing each other, it will scare you.’

‘Nothing scares me because Jesus is in my heart, right?’  response #3

 

Dear parents, please learn from my mistake: if your child emphasizes the ‘right?’ at the end of his/her statement, take it as a sign that you are TOAST. It also means that the child has learned that you can never beat the Jesus Card and is now using the card to his/her advantage like a master negotiator. Checkmate!

Abort the mission and retreat.

I certainly did.
