Conversation with Dad

Dad: Ryley, I just told you last night not to play with the outlets. There is fire in there and it could come out and GET YOU!
Ryley: I don't want it to come out and get me.
Dad: Then don't play with the outlets.
Ryley: There's fire in that hole in there?
Dad: Yup

Boy, I love how we scare our kids. The other day I told Ryley if she kept swallowing her gum she would get bugs in her tummy.

when my sister was little, she asked my mom what would happen if there was a fire, my mom said we would leave the house. then she asked what would happen if we were trapped and my mom said that "the firemen would come and get her" for a year, she thught firemen were coming to "get her" and was terrified of them. kids take things so literaly.
