Reverse Psychology

My sister has become an expert in reverse psychology since having kids. Two weeks ago when her three-year-old nephew was visiting, Maria pulled an amazing stunt: she confused him with politeness. Aaron had been kicking the ball inside the house, and it was confiscated. He wanted it back. Read on...

Aaron: "Tia Maria, can you get me that ball because I want to play with it and I won't kick it, I just want to roll it? Can you get if for me, please?"

Maria: "No thank you." And walked away.

End of conversation.
