Family negotiation
Jun. 4th, 2013 06:39 pmThe kidlet is writing another novel. This is very lovely, but the kidlet doesn't have a computer, and I can't afford to buy one just now.
The other day, before leaving for work, I said, "I need more access to my own computer. See what kind of division you can propose."
Later I got this e-mail. (These days I'm getting permission to quote the kidlet here!)

I get the computer from the time you leave until you get home and from 7:30 to 8 in the evening. You get the computer in the morning before you leave and in the afternoon until you start on dinner, during which time I'll probably be doing the chores you left which I didn't do because I was on the computer all morning. I get the computer while you're cooking if you're cooking. You get the computer at 8 and may retain it until you cease to be functional, succeeding which I may use the computer as long as you don't know about it, I am fully functional the next day, and the battery isn't dead, in which case you may revoke my nighttime privileges.
