Example 1:
Johnny, it's beneficial to maintain a reasonable bedtime so that you can be rested and productive tomorrow.
>Johnny: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEI'm sorry you can't be mature enough to see this. I'm going to have to remove this thing that's negatively impacting you because I love you.
Example 2:
Jay, I have errands that I need to run and I can't leave you, a child, by yourself.
>Jay: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEI'm sorry you can't be mature enough to see this. Because you're not cooperating we now all have more work to do, and I'm going to ask you to help.
Example 3:
April, as a member of this household it's important that you contribute to its upkeep. This is a reasonable request, not only because it's beneficial to learn the value of collaboration, but because I literally pay to keep you alive
>April: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEI'm sorry you can't be mature enough to see this. You need to learn that actions have consequences.
I can't believe I actually wasted five minutes of my life typing this out. As a father I legitimately feel terrible for your parents.
