Band-aids lead to violence

Band-aids are a new thing in our house. I recently bought a box of Dora the Explorer Band-aids in case we should need them.

My first mistake?

Telling Aidan I bought them.

He now runs to me with mysterious toe injuries...bumps on the head that seem to come out of nowhere. Last night I had enough.

"No more Band-aids unless you have a real owwie and I see it happen."

That was my second mistake...

Aidan then proceeds to say "okay mom...you watching??" He walks over to the living room wall and hits it full force with his tiny hand.

What's a mom to do? I had to give him the Band-aid just for sheer determination. (Plus I am sure it had to hurt!!)
