Too Scary

Alex has learned that if he tells us something is scary we will not make him do it. Usually. (Haircuts excepted.) For example, he thinks his grandparents' garage is scary, so we don't make him go in. But because he is too smart for us, now anything he doesn't want to do is "too scary." Here are some things that have been "scary" just this morning:

Story time at the library

Reading a book about mice

Getting a poopy diaper changed

I assume the manipulation of the parents only gets more sophisticated from here.
