We were on our way to the store and, at the last minute, Hadlee asked what she could do to earn money. Since we didn't have time for her to earn money, I asked her what she wanted to buy. She said she wanted to buy some of those mints dad had the other day and asked again what she could do to earn money. I told her that I would buy her some but the cost would be her soul. She asked what that meant. I explained that it meant I was in charge of all her decisions from now until she turned 18. Whatever I say, she has to do from now on, including breaking up with boys that I don't like. She carefully considered and then made her decision. Her soul was worth a box of Altoids.
I am deciding between taking advantage of this (and using it against her for the rest of her life) and sitting her down to have a talk with her about the worth of her soul, and how it should be worth more than $2.40.
