Choices

Over breakfast at McDonalds, a toddler was hiding under the table, wailing and yelping because he didn't want to take his medicine.

kid: "I do not want to take the medicine. Other people here are not taking theirs, why should I?

mom: "Because they're not sick, you are."

kid: "But it tastes really bad."

mom: "Well you can have chocolate afterwards."

The kid was not impressed, whereupon he continued crying. Exasperated, mom finally blew her top and told the toddler: "It's either you take this medicine, or you get an injection. You choose."

And so the kid took his medicine in one gulp.
