We had a picnic lunch at the park last week with some friends. When it was time to go Abigail wanted to stay and play longer with her friends.
Abigail: I want to stay at the park forever!
Mom: Stay forever? What would happen when it got dark? Don't you think you'd get cold?
Abigail (pauses to think): I have my blanket, that would keep me warm.
Mom: There are no beds at the park, where would we sleep?
Abigail (pauses to think): We could sleep on the grass!
Mom: What about food? There isn't a kitchen. We would get hungry.
Abigail (gestures to the left over lunch food): We have food, we'll be okay.
Mom: What about if it gets windy, we'd get pretty cold.
Abigail (thinks): We have blankets, that will keep us warm.
She refuted all of my arguments. Looks like we're moving to the park!
