Andreas and his brother Matias were over last evening, playing with Corwin. After they watched TV for a while, Mom finally managed to kick them outside. It didn’t take long until they were trying to hit each with various objects. I noticed them using croquet mallets, so I took those away.
So naturally they found some sharp pointy wooden sticks to use and naturally I took those way.
Then they switched to sharp pointy metal sticks…at that point I had to forbid hitting at each other in general, as I didn’t want to see what came next.
