Always needed to have ketchup. Then: Child: “I hate ketchup!” Mom: "What do you mean? You put ketchup on everything.’ Child: “I’ve never used ketchup. I’ve always hated it.” [Jump forward a few years] Child: “Where’s my ketchup?” Mom: “I thought you hated ketchup?” Child: “Since when? I use ketchup all the time.” As the dad, I’m tempted to point out that mom doesn’t need help losing her mind, but as the dad, I also know better than to be involved.
