Way to turn it around!

Girl Child: "Do you know where my blue pencil is?"
Boy Child: "Nope"
GC: "I left it on the counter when music lessons started and it's not there"
BC: "Nope. I don't know where it is"

---Girl child searching for 5 minutes under couches, in cushions, etc etc---

BC: "Oh, I think it might have fallen into my backpack"
GC: "UGH!  Well can I have it back please?"
BC: "I think it's in my desk"
GC: "UGH!"
BC: "FINE!  IM SO SORRY FOR RUINING YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!  JEEZ!  I MEAN, IT'S JUST A PENCIL!  I GUESS I SHOULD JUST GO LIVE SOMEWHERE ELSE!  FINE, YOU HATE ME!  I GET IT!"

Little punk.  Way to turn it around and blame her.

I also, in following up on this discussion, said it's "on" his desk which he vehemently denied.
BC: "No it's not.  It is not on my desk, I swear! "
Me: "Oh, I thought you said it was on your desk at school?"
BC: "No, I NEVER SAID THAT!"
GC: "Dad, he said it was in his desk, not on his desk"
Me: "You. Have. GOT. To. Be. Kidding. Me."
