Boy Child: Is one of those books for me, mom?
Me: Sure.
Boy Child: Thanks. I'm going to read it now.
Me: Well, um. Maybe you should just save it. And read it later.
Boy Child: Why? I want to read it now.
Me: Well, that's fine hon, it's just...I don't know that you'd understand it now.
Boy Child: Why?
Me: Well...it's just maybe over your head a little.
Boy Child: I'm not following.
Me: I just don't think you'd understand honey.
Boy Child, rolling his eyes: MOM! Duh! That's WHY I want to read it NOW. I'll understand it when I get OLDER. I don't want to read it then!
Of course.

Very astute. I hope Boy Child doesn't grow out of his cleverness like most men.
