Asher - MOM! Aidan hit me!
Aidan - Well, he hit me first!
Me - If you had told me when he hit you, he'd be in trouble but since you hit him back you are the one in trouble. Go stand in the corner.
*5 minutes later
Me - So what happens if Asher hits you?
Aidan - I tell you and he gets in trouble.
Me - But if you hit him back?
Aidan - I'm in trouble.
Me - Asher, what happens if Aidan hits you?
Asher - Me whack him.
Me - No, if he hits you, you tell Mama and he gets in trouble. But if you hit him back, you'll be in trouble.
Asher - Ok, Mama.
*6 seconds later
Asher - MOM! Aidan hit me!
Aidan - He hit me first!
Me - Oh good God! Really?!?! Fine, just fight it out and whoever bleeds first loses and goes in the corner.
*wide eyed looks of confusion
