My Child, The Smartass

Trying to keep the boy from getting distracted, as he is apt to do. I lead him into the bathroom to go pee. Upon arrival he turns on me:
"I want to go pee all by myself."
"Ok. I won't help at all," I answer as I stand and wait.
"No, all by myself," he says adamantly.
"Oh, do you want me to leave?" I ask.
Hands on hips he answers sarcasticly, "As in 'all by myself?'"

Exit one father.

Smart mouth. He must get that from his mother.

Oh no, you are not going to pin this one on me. This is all your doing, as in all by yourself.

I read in the New England Journal of Medicine that the trait of being a smart ass comes from the paternal grandmother.
