No, child! I think your mother reads to you every night in order to stupefy you to sleep. So that she and daddy could sit down for three measly minutes without you and your mindless, inexhaustible, unstoppable, repetitive and nagging demands! ‘He took my toy!’, ‘She hit my bear!’, ‘I want a party!’, ‘I want a cookie!’, ‘I want to stay up!’, I want I want I want, me me me me, my my my my, now now now.
Can’t you understand, child? They tell you stories…to shut you up.
