Me: "Go clean your room right now, Kaylie. I'm not asking you again."
Kaylie: "I don't want to clean my room! You're not the boss of me, mom!"
Me: "I am the boss of you and you will clean your room or you'll have a time-out AND still clean your room."
Kaylie: "When I grow up I'm going to be the boss of you and give you a million time-outs!!! And make you eat broccoli...then you'll be sorry."
