Eli said he had a very bad day at school – he didn’t work with any, didn’t play with everyone, and Raphael smacked him, and then Madison smacked him, and then the rest of the class lined up to smack him, and then they were just sitting there thinking about smacking him. And do you know where the rest of the class is now? Sitting at home thinking about smacking him. And the teachers, what did they do about this? They smacked him too.

Oh Eli, the stories you tell! We have no idea if anyone at all smacked Eli, and the story gets more elaborate each time it is told.

Hand over the keys dad! I’ve got places to go….
