15 year olds

Today Thomas was bugging a sibling because he had nothing better to do. Sibling in question was getting huffy and whiny and I kept hearing, "Thomas, STOP IT!!!!" in an ear-splitting tone.

"Remember what we read today about not disturbing someone's inner peace is part of 'thou shalt not kill'!" I sang from the next room.

"But, he's...!" and then, "Wait." and finally and satisfyingly, "Oh darn...." led me to believe that he had gotten the message. Whew!

The next thing I heard was Thomas' voice laughingly saying to sibling, "Don't stand next to me...you're disturbing my inner peace!"

SIGH.
