Me: Sweetheart, remember, sometimes you just have to let other people be wrong. Just say to her, "I know the truth, and your words don't bother me." (This has been very effective at shutting her up when it comes from us.)

Minifob: I can't say that because it does bother me!

Me: Well, you're not going to convince her, so you need to just talk about something else.

Minifob: No, because Mr. [Tae Kwon Do teacher] says never give up. I'm not a quitter!!

...And they fight for the rest of the way home. This is going to get so much better as they get older, I can just tell.

Posts like this make me think I should have a Fobble House Hall of Fame. I love stories like this; Clodfobble, thank you from the bottom of my heart for letting us be a fly on the wall for moments like this.
