Just because they're disagreeing does not mean you need to immediately come in and go, uh-uh, that's enough. Y'all cut it out. Y'all be nice.

Why should I allow that? Instead of getting into the, oh, why not? Why can't I? I make him make the argument. which is, again, wonderful training ground at making him think of the goal.
