"Because I'm the parent" seems a perfectly reasonable thing to say. Benevolent dictatorship and all. However, some of the things that pop out of my mouth truly do surprise me:
"No, you are NOT going to mummify your sister" (to Chana)
"Markers go on the paper, not in your mouth" (to Ilana, after a market went SPLOOSH all over her teeth. She was distraught and wanted to nurse. EWWWW!)
"STOP READING!!!!!!!" (to Batsheva)
"You may not use permanent marker to write on yourself" (to PB)
"You may not use permanent marker to write on another person, especially not a mustache" (ibid)
