Question

So, you are driving a really crabby two-and-a-half year old downtown and he has been whining all morning, from the minute he woke up, saying things like "No milk!" when you put a cup of milk down for breakfast, then you take the milk away and he says "Milk milk milk!" and then you give it back to him and then he says "No milk!", and that kind of thing. And now he's sitting in the back seat of the car trying to hit you in the back of the head and although he doesn't know where he's going he has been promised beignets but he is still just really crabby, still pretending to hit you in the back of the head even though he usually loves rides in the car and always loves beignets. So my question is: Is it really bad to smile, just a kind of a half smile, when you think about where you are going (before getting beignets) and where you are going is the doctor to have a flu shot?

Not in the slightest. Parent's privilege.

Why the cranklepants? Did he get up on the wrong side this morning?
