Weighing the Options

As of late, Aiden has been into spitting for some strange reason...like, he's a boy I guess. At the breakfast table this morning it began again.

We've talked about this many times and given many warnings. We've told him he's being a bad example because as soon as he starts, Dawson soon follows. None of this has had any impact on his three-year-old mind.

"Aiden," I asked him, "do you want to get a spanking?"

He thought for a brief moment and asked, "Who's gonna' spank me, you or daddy?"
