"Mommy... when you say mean things to me, I want to say mean things to you back. You know that?"
Said from the top of the stairs during one of our nightly "negotiations" about how it's already bedtime and mommy and daddy aren't coming upstairs again and if you don't go inside your room and close your door we're going to come up and take your precious sippy cup of water away.
My god, what a brilliant kid...
My son does the "Mommy when you say bad words it hurts my feelings," which is extremely effective. Score for the 5 year old. =)
