    This is no small feat.

    Only non-witches get due process.

        Why not let the kid take all six?
        What lesson is there to be instilled by doing this?

          I do hope you're trying to be funny.

              Nope. Serious questions.

                You should try this new thing called AI.

                This scenario could teach the toddler several important lessons, depending on how it was framed and the child’s capacity to understand:
                1. Sharing and Consideration for Others: By taking only one book, the child might learn that it’s considerate to leave some for others who might also enjoy them. This introduces the idea of fairness and empathy.
                2. Moderation and Self-Control: The act of choosing one book instead of taking all six might demonstrate the value of moderation and resisting the impulse to take everything available.
                3. Decision-Making: Having to pick just one book could teach the child how to make a thoughtful choice, which is an important skill.
                4. Gratitude and Simplicity: The child might learn to appreciate what they have instead of focusing on acquiring more. It fosters an understanding that even a small gift can bring joy.
                5. Following Guidance: If the man explained the reasoning behind taking only one book, the child might learn the importance of listening to trusted adults and understanding their perspective.

                This seemingly small act could be laying the groundwork for broader life lessons about generosity, fairness, and mindfulness.

                  I am appalled an explanation was necessary.

                    Need more details on what the negotiation consisted of. Breakfast marshmallows and jello for the rest of the week?

                          Why "wow"? I'm entirely unsurprised.

                            Did anyone cross-check what DeepSeek has to say on the matter?
