This morning I drop both Maya and Luca to school (Luca just started to go to Maya's old daycare two days a week so I can get some work done) because I'm meeting Bernice this afternoon. Maya wants to bring a huge lego structure (a space ship she's put together) to the school when we're outside the school. I say no, the school doesn't allow you to bring your own toys and other kids may take it. But she insists. While I try to put the ship back to the car, some parts of it fall off. Maya bursts into tears. She kicks and shouts, mommy, you're bad! you're bad! I feel awful at that moment. She's never said such a thing to me before. So I give in and let her bring part of the ship in. What can you do otherwise?
