Kid complained that car was dirty. Mom said “ Ok, you can wash the car”. I’m sure this is an example of parenting brilliance, empowering kid to solve complaint.
Kid washed car. Yay kid! Upon parental inspection, one parent said “Oooooh shiny!”. Other parent said “But water spots! It wasn’t lovingly dried off with a chamois.” First parent cluelessly responded with honest “Who dries off their car in any way other than driving around the block???” reaction.
We have different strategies. Either way, we are grateful that good kid washed the car.
