My sister told me this story about my niece's MC.

First, My sister "Jasmine" is a great mom to "Rapunzel" (niece's fav movie) ... even when niece was small she'd clearly tell her expected behavior for situations & clear communication. Rapunzel has always been very intelligent.

One of the expected behaviors is that if you bring something to the car you're expected to remove it. one day when Rapunzel was about 3/4 they were going somewhere.

Rapunzel: "Mommy can you please carry my doll for me?" "Sure honey"

They go wherever they're going...get home and Jasmine says "you forgot your doll"

"But mommy, you bought it to the car...I didn't"

Jasmine said..."that was the last time I fell for that...and yes I did bring it inside because she was right...I did bring it to the car and that's the rule."

ETA; rapunzel is an adult now. She's a dancer...not a lawyer :)
