Never Argue With a Child
never get into an argument with a child.
never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever
because they always win.
they have nothing to lose,
and you do.
you lose your dignity,
your composure,
your everything
a child never backs down,
they do not know how,
and once they are on the ledge,
they will jump
so never do it.
You will always
lose
Instead, make it clear that they are the
child and you are the adult, earn their
respect, and try to keep it until they
are twelve or thirteen,
then all bets are off.
