Conversation 1
Caroline is at my office, and has started fussing with a stack of ungraded papers.
Me: Caroline, don't play with those. They aren't toys.
Caroline: Then why did you put them where I can reach them? If they aren't toys, then you shouldn't put them where I can reach them.
Me: umm...
Caroline: Here, I will put them where I can't reach them.
Me: What? That's not possible. Let me take those.
Caroline [trying to carry a stack of papers accross the room, dropping several]: No it's ok. I'm just going to put them where I can't reach them.
Me: No, that doesn't work. If you can reach there to put them there, you can also reach them to take them down. [takes papers]
