Dinner conversation with Skyler

Mom - We have a special treat tonight, cupcakes! But if you want a cupcake you have to eat all your dinner.
Skyler - No, if you want dinner you have to eat your cupcakes!

Couple of minutes later...

Skyler - Is this a people bone?
Mom - No, it's chicken. You're eating a chicken leg so that's the leg bone of the chicken.
Skyler - How come it's not a people bone?
Mom - We don't eat people, but we do eat chicken and other animals.
Skyler - Why don't we eat people?
Mom - Because that's gross, people are our family and friends.
Skyler - What about strangers?
Mom - Eat your chicken, Skyler.
Skyler - Why do we eat animals?
Mom - Because we do.

Couple of minutes later...

Skyler - Whoof Whoof (Skyler puts his fork down and takes a mouthful of veggies off his plate)
Mom - Skyler! Use your fork please!
Skyler - Whoof Whoof Whoof (I'm a dog)
Mom - I know you're a dog but pretend you're a dog with excellent table manners that uses a fork.
Skyler - Whoof (No)
Mom - Or no cupcake!
Skyler - Okay, okay.

On a softer lighter note Skyler says he wants to be a doctor when he grows up.
