. . . and if we can't figure out the political jigsaw puzzle then I'll just squeak until someone takes pity on me because I'm whining loud enough!
Even as a parent myself, I've often tossed toys to my own children because they were so fucking annoying that I was unwilling to put up with their constant pleas, tears, and tantrums that I've tossed all my psychology aside and rewarded the brats in the quest for that-thing-they-want-that-they-can't-have. Embarrassingly, I even admit to following up with a cookie. Kids will be kids.
Then again, I have to see my children every day. I live with them. I can't avoid them. It's not like I can just hide in my bathroom and pretend they don't exist. I'm dedicated to their survival and so I am obligated to be a part of their adorable lives. I must make peace with them for those reasons.
Anyone else though, beyond my kiddos, aren't so fortunate. No cookies either! Certainly no cookies for criers.
