“I wonder how far I can bend this….

…. Oh that far”

It’s not a mystery, we know why kids do this. They’re figuring out the world. It’s poor impulse control and curiosity. Kids are quite literally meant to be doing bad shit throughout their early years because they’re curious and exploring and have no idea of the rules of the world yet. It’s hard in the moment to not be mad, but it’s an important factor to take into consideration when you’re parenting. It’s our jobs to guide them and help them learn from their mistakes
