Our Kids Fight Over Science

The conversation at our breakfast counter this morning went something like this:

Ben: Eli, you are too young to learn about science. Want me to draw you oxygen?
Eli: Yes.
Ben draws dots on a piece of paper.
Eli: Now cut it out, put my name on it, and give it to me.
Ben: No. This is MY science paper (he had drawn atoms on it with Josh last night).
Mom: Eli, would you like Ben to draw oxygen on this new piece of paper?
Ben draws dots on new paper.
Eli: Now write my name on it.
Ben writes Eli's name.
Ben: Now we both have science papers!
