Another lawyer in the family?

One of our greatest frustrations with parenting our monkeys is that we parents never get the last word. Whatever happened to "children should be seen and not heard"? Not in our house. Meek and obedient do not describe our kids. Spirited, engaging, stubborn - now you get the picture.
Here's a classic example:
After her nap, Aisling received her snack of rice crackers and milk. Upon consuming the items, she wandered upstairs to ask for more crackers.
Daddy answered, "No more crackers. You can have an apple or orange."
"How about some chocolate?" our little lawyer-to-be counter offered.
