that's mah boy

we had an issue the other day at the gym, where gaffer was hitting people with his smedley (a stuffed blue dog). then he picked up a school bus and threatened a little girl with it saying: move or i'll smash your face.

yah.

so after some careful deliberation, rockstar hubby and i realized that those lines are used in 101 dalmations. gotta love disney. so we decided, no more. he can't watch anything except for blues clues, dora, veggietales and robin hood.

this morning gaffer asked about 101 dalmations. i said he couldn't watch it.

g: why not?
me: because they say bad things and that makes you say bad things
g: why?
me: because that's what tv does. it influences us to do things we don't normally do.
g: i'm going to tell the tv to stop doing that.
me: ok buddy.

he leaves.
two seconds later he's in the sunroom talking to the tv set.

g: ok tv. you have to stop saying bad things because then i say bad things like, i'm gonna smash your face with a school bus. no more tv. you only say good things. ok? ok.

if only it were that easy..
