Me: Why did you behave so badly this morning?
D: My brain controls me. I can’t help it!
Me: You CAN help it – change it!
D: What, my brain? Take a bit out and put another bit in?
Me: No, but you can flick a switch to think in a different way.
D: Actually, there IS a switch! Every time I roll over, it knocks the switch and my brain thinks different ways. There’s four ways:
1. Being nice
2. Being bad
3. Playing nicely with people and not rough
4. Fighting with bad people
…I’ve just put the bad one in the rubbish bin in my head. So now there’s only three ways.
