missmisty 12:08 PM 03-15-2019
DCG - 2.5, DCB 3.5

DCG crying: missmisty!!!!
me: what happened?
DCG: (pointing at dcb while crying hysterically)
me: DCB, do you know why she's crying?
DCB: well.
(long pause)
...I just wanted her away from me.
me: I understand, now can you tell me what made her cry?
DCB: well
(another long pause)
...I maybe pushed her because I wanted her away so I made her away.
me: We don't push our friends. Let's go to time-out.
DCB: its ok though because she's not my friend. I actually don't like her.

**at this point I'm hiding a grin because logically hes telling me that he shouldn't be in trouble because didn't push "a friend".

me: I see. Well it's still not kind to push ANYONE. We use gentle hands not hurting hands. Please sit on the time-out bench.
DCB: fine.
DCG - who has been screaming this whole time suddenly smiles this huge "I won" smile and says "OH TANK YOU MISS MISTY!!!"

I walked away giggling. both at his logic and honesty, because he really DOESNT like this little girl, but also at the fact that she THANKED ME for putting him in time-out
