Discussion.

The other night, Dino and I had a discussion.

The discussion was about the right lead canter.

It went like this:

Me: Dino, please pick up your right lead canter.

Dino: No.

Me: Dino, seriously, just do what I'm asking you to do when I ask nicely.

Dino: YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME!!!

Me: Dude, I pay your bills so you can eat every day, plus I'm the one sitting on you holding the reins right now. And I have a whip. So canter.

Dino: I don't wanna.

Me: Can. Ter.

Dino: No thanks.

Me: Do it.

Dino: LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOUUUUUU

Me: IF YOU DO NOT PICK UP THE RIGHT LEAD CANTER RIGHT THIS SECOND, DINO-THE-PONY, I SWEAR ON MY LIFE, YOU WILL GET NO MORE TREATS, EVER.

Dino: Fine. I'll do it. But I won't like it. And you're mean.

After this discussion, I now feel prepared to raise a petulant child.

  1. Ahaha! Poppy and I had this EXACT same discussion yesterday!! Except that when she finally did pick up the right lead I got so excited I forgot she always bucks in one particular corner and almost went flying off. Poppy 1, Jillian 0.

  2. It occurs to me that I was so excited to get a canter out of Sarge the other day that I have no idea what lead he was on, oops.
