Goldmining

Today, about a minute after telling my son not to pick his nose, he caught me picking mine. This has led to a cascade of, "Why should I follow dad's rules when even dad doesn’t follow dad rules?" He now questions everything I tell him, and is breaking every rule in the book to make his point. FML

why would you tell him not to pick his nose? teach them to do it discretely but ffs why would you tell him not to pick it at all.

Classic hypocrisy. Apologize, compromise and let him pick his nose whenever he pleases.

This is a great time to show him the hypocrisy and double-standards that exist in the world. "Do as I say, not as I do." Learn it. Love It.
