swingset


Clayton - "Mom, can I borrow the drill?"
Me - "No."
Clayton (a few minutes later) - "Mom, can I borrow the hammer?"
Me - "What for?  No."
A few minutes later, I find Clayton trying to take apart the swingset with his and his friends' tools.
After quickly putting the kabash on his exploit, he steams "You never let me do ANYTHING!  I can't wait until I'm grown up. THEN, I can do whatever I want! "
He was mollified a bit later when I let him twist screws and some other random things I don't have names for into some firewood.
Good grief.
