Me: yo party people, I need to go get something from the place with the things so I need you all to raise your right hand and repeat after me "I promise I will self manage my behavior to the best of my ability until an adult returns" Kid: can I behave while you're gone but then do whatever when you get back? Me: define "whatever" Kid: I want to paint with my fingers instead of a brush Me: oh, you can do that when I get back if everyone is being good while I'm gone Other kid: I don't want to be good Me: then you have to come with me Other other kids: we want to come with you Me: ok everyone line up, we're going to mob the supply room together
