Mom: Time to get up & get ready for school.
Brady: I don't want to, I hate school.
Mom: Brady, I really don't like when you say that.
Brady: Well, I do. I hate it. I wish I could retire like Nana.
Mom: Well, you can't retire until you go to school and then get a job, and then when you're older you can retire.
Brady: It's not fair. My life is terrible.
Mom: Oh really?!
Brady: I wish you'd win the lottery.
Mom: Why?
Brady: Because then you wouldn't have to work & I wouldn't have to go to school.
Mom: If I won the lottery, I wouldn't have to work any more, but you'd still have to go to school.
Brady: Why?
Mom: Because it's the law and kids have to go to school.
Brady: But if you won the lottery, couldn't you just pay the principal & the teacher, so that I wouldn't have to go to school?
Mom: No!!! Get up & get ready!!!
* Brady moping around while getting dressed *
Mom: There are kids in other countries that would love to be able to go to school & learn. Smile honey - I love you!!!
Brady: Do you really? 'Cause if you did, you wouldn't make me go to school!
Mom: Oh really! * laughing loudly *
* Brady smiling & laughing now as we walk out the door *
Mom: Here we go - YAY - school! * being silly *
Brady: My life is horrible! * rolling his eyes *
