What would you do?
« on: November 03, 2020, 11:00:15 AM »
Apparently I promised my 4 year old son a big paw patrol car while I was sleeping. I remember vaguely him coming to me early morning and asking me something. When I woke he was all jolly because I said yes that I can get him this big toy. I have no recollection of anything like that. Do I need to buy it for him?

 ;D ;D ;D

How do you know he wasn’t dreaming?

Also, this topic is voter suppression because it distracts people from the elections and going out to vote. 😂

Is the car worth more than you'd pay to have your kids trust?

Are you a parent? Is it better to teach the kid you’ll fulfill any dream the kid has as long as they say “but you promised you’d...”?

Whether or not you purchase it, you may want to have a discussion about asking parents for things while they are asleep.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Buy it, tell him you bought it, and make him earn it. If you can stall a bit before giving it to him, make it a Chanukah present.

on an average day I wouldn't post these real problems here. I just decided for election day we can use some distraction ;D
