D1 was doing okay this morning. I sat up on the window sill, and she followed me and wanted to get up on it also, so I picked her up and sat her down next to me... then 4 other kids wanted to do the same thing so I had to get off and before you know it there were 5 kids sitting up on the window sill kicking their legs. D1 grinned at me and got me to pick her up off the window.
She did spit up a little, so I helped clean that up. Otherwise things looked good.
Anyway... what are my goals with W? At this point I've been conducting a war and W says she was unaware of exactly how bad of a position she is in legally.
I feel like I'm playing chess with a three year old, and am unable to explain what checkmate means so that they can understand it.
W is obviously 'fogged' but she isn't in the 'angry' fog right now, more in the "Oh crap I've ended up in a crap situation and it doesn't make sense but I'm going to do it anyway" fog.
It almost feels like she would listen to reason if she was capable of reason. But all I would expect is the wishy washy "I dunno" and "Maybe" and "I'll think about it" answers that led us to where we are.
She seemed semi-lucid anyway in our conversation.
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
