JT:  This kid at school talks all the time and he annoys me when I want to get work done.
Mama:  Well, maybe school is hard for him.  Maybe you should be a good friend to him.
JT:  Why?  He's not a good friend to me.
Mama:  Well, you'd like him to be a good friend to you, so maybe you should show him how to be a good friend by being a good friend to him.  You know:  treat him as you would like to be treated.
JT:  Well, I'm going to treat him like he treats me, because that must be how he wants to be treated.
Conclusion:  6 year old logic is a powerful force to be reckoned with.
I'm not sure that I'm up to the challenge 100% of the time.

6 year old logic is tough to argue with, that's for damned sure.
