Is Your Child an Evil Genius? +

I'm watching my three year old twins run through an obstacle course at their gymnastics class.  The teacher is at one station helping them do backwards rolls and so not really paying attention to the rest of the class.  Part of the course includes hanging from a bar across a pit of foam blocks.  A little boy climbs out onto the bar and hangs there.  One of my girls climbs up next to the bar, leans across and peels his fingers back one by one until he screams and plummets into the pit.  Then she throws her head back, laughing hysterically, and cannon balls into the pit on top of him.
This isn't the first time I've seen this type of thing.  One day at school a little boy told her not to touch a door.  Poor dear.  She looks him up and down, then walks across to 'the door' and starts rubbing it while flashing him a look that said, 'What this door??? Oh, I'm gonna touch THIS door all day long.  Why?  Because I can see it bothers you.'  The boy proceeds to break out in hysterics.  To be fair, he was being ridiculous but I look over to see her watching the meltdown and smiling from ear to ear.  Yikes.

So it seems I have an evil genius on my hands.  Possibly two.

You may too if....

Your child is vocal and dominant.
They find others misfortune hysterical.
It doesn't matter what the punishment is. If it's fun, it's on.
They believe sleep is for the weak.
Punishment sometimes eggs them on.
They lead others into rebellion.
They have become experts at blaming someone else.
Instead of apologizing, they justify.
They find it insulting when others beat them to the naughty punch.
They will continue a five minute conversation that consists of only the words, 'No, I'm the boss.'

Be afraid.  Be very afraid.
