C: Mom, should I buy this little stuffed animal? I've wanted it for a very long time, and it's only $5!
Me: Well, I don't think you should. You have so many stuffed animals already that this one will probably just be forgotten in a few days.
C: But I have the money with me.
Me: Well, but later you might find something else that you want more.
C: I guess so. (Returns stuffed animal to rack, then returns.). Mom, I don't like putting stuffed animals back on the rack.
Me: It's hard.
C: Yes! Plus they look at you with such frustration and shame when you do it!
