Real conversation:
Zack: Mom! Evan is teasing me!
Evan: I am not!
Zack: Yes you are. You are a mean bully!
Evan : I hate you! I'm going to kick you in the face.
Zack: Mom, Evan is threatening me.
Evan: Mom, Zachary is being really mean to me.
Me: Boys,work it out and stop telling on each other. I don't want to hear it.
Zack: You are the worst brother in whole world.
Evan: Mom! Zachary is still being mean to me.
Me: I said, work it out.
Evan: Ouch! Zachary just pinched me.
Zachary: I did not! You're lying.
Evan: Poopy head!
Zachary: Mom! Evan called me a poopy head.
Me: The next person who tells on their brother is going to their room!
Zachary: Evan just kicked me!
Evan: I'm telling!
Zachary: Mom-Evan is telling on me!
Really? Really?
Jesus.
