Arcade

So we're at an arcade and my friend and I decide together to not buy anymore points for our kids.  This doesn't stop them from trying:

Kid:  Can I have more money? 

Me:  No. 

Kid:  Why?  

Me:  Because. 

Kid:  Can I have more money?

Me:  No. 

Kid:  Why?  

Me:  Because. 

Repeat for ten minutes.  The kids finally leave and we are proud of ourselves for holding strong.  

Then we watch as my friend's husband makes his way to the machine to recharge the cards with happy kids, my son included, in tow. 

Turns out he forgot his wallet so he asked my friend, his wife, for money. 

So of course I offer to pay for my son's part. 

Kids, so tricky.
