Why can't I always do exactly whatever I want to? Because that's not in the plan of the secret ruling cabal of all parents. Oh! I... I'm... I meant to say... Uh... Because we love you. Sarcasm aside, you don't have an answer, do you?

My then-12-year-old son asked me that very question. I replied, “Because I don’t want you to turn out like (insert spoiled kid’s name here).” I knew my sons didn’t like that spoiled brat, so it was very effective. That son is now 19, and hasn’t given us any real trouble since then. He may not like what he is told to do (usually chores), but he will do them. (Respectful disagreements and discussions are allowed in our home.)

Drat—the secret’s out! Looks like Dad may have to “take out” the son (if you know what I’m sayin’ …)..Good one.
