Abby's Unfair Tactics

Look, I'm only human. So when my four and a half year old daughter is coughing night in and night out and I've just gone in to give her tylenol and she says,

"Did you know what my problem was?" (i.e. I came in with the medicine so I knew why she was calling me)
"Yes, I'm sorry you're coughing."
"Maybe my cough happens because I'm alone." (she would prefer having a cuddle buddy with her every night - nevermind that no one with the task ever sleeps because Abby sleeps like a working windmill.)

My heart is just not that strong.
