…Batman analogies teach the entire family a lesson…
Me: Boys I have noticed how hard you’ve been trying to listen the first time when you are asked to do something and I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate it.
Chase: Sooooo, what are you gonna do for us?
Me: Oh, I don’t know, feed you three hundred times a day?
Charlie: Noooo, you should give us something!
Me: We make good choices because it’s the right thing to do, not because we want something in return you spoiled rotten brats precious gifts from God.
Chandler: Yeah, like Batman. He comes in, saves the day, the people say thanks and he just says “You are welcome” (said in best gruffy Batman voice) and then he flies away.
Then a fight erupts about the idea that Batman doesn’t really fly except yes he totally does because he has wings but oh wait just a minute he just soars on them not flies.
*deep breathe*
I think they got the point.
I mean, who doesn’t learn something from Batman analogies?
