My little brother just convinced my mom to stop punishing him for things he does wrong.
“I’ve decided that you should stop punishing me for failing classes/not handing in work because I’ve realized that I actually like the attention that I get from you for it and that’s not healthy.” -Johnnny
“You know, I think you’re right!” -Mom
“Great, so I can get texting back and I’m not grounded anymore?” -Johnny
“I suppose” -Mom
