Headstrong and Defiant
“NO! I WON’T”
“YOU CAN’T MAKE ME!”
Watch as I change your “do” to a “don’t”
How bad can the punishment be?
No video games?
So what!
No treat tonight?
Is that all you got?
You are the worst mom in the world!
The truth hurts, I know.
Just listen as my insults continue to unfurl.
I hate you, from your head to your toes!
I’m not holding back any blows.
I’ll show you that I can get my way.
No matter how much you oppose.
I’m the T-Rex and you’re my prey.
Don’t walk away from this fight.
I’m not done telling you how wrong you are.
And how I am so right.
Don’t try to tell me I’ve gone too far.
This is serious business.
You can’t possibly expect this of me.
My brother is my witness.
Finish all of my peas?
You know, I can’t eat anything green!
Unless, it’s mint chocolate-chip ice cream.
