The Rule of Rules

Rule making among the children goes like this:

The 7 year old makes the rule for all the children to follow.

The 5 year old makes an amendments to the rule.

Then 7 year old makes an amendment to the amendment.

The 5 year old and the 7 year old then debate the rules.

The first rule is struck down and replaced with a different second rule that bears a striking resemblance to the first rule.

The rule is then amended by the 5 year old.

Then the rule is amended again by the 7 year old.

The rule is finally accepted by both parties and ratified.

Then the 2 year old ignores all the rules...
