Little Johnny Stories IV
As any parent can attest, little Johnny, even at two years of age, can plot out a course of action to his maximum advantage [just like you and I can]. Yet he can sometimes make a startling mistake [just like you and I can]. For example, when he hasn't had his nap he’s sure to be a little crabby, and that might mean he just might shoot himself in the foot. Like, daddy lovingly says to him, "Johnny, how would you like to" - and before daddy can finish the part about going to the ice cream store Johnny blurts out "NO!"
Conclusion: a crabby little kid can be as foolish as a crabby adult.
