But - MY mommy said NO!

Yeah, I understand the racing thing too. My kid didn't want a party this year for his birthday - he wanted to go to the go-cart track. I have never seen the competitive side of him quite as acutely as I did that day. He "won" every time he got on the track with the other kids. He just flew past people as if he had been racing his whole life instead of the reality - this was his first time driving go-carts! Then he stared a kid down (ok, stared at the back of his head while smirking like crazy) when he beat him. This was after they had been trash-talking each other while they were waiting for their turn.

Now we'll be taking him on a long road trip next week - we'll see how he does looking at the scenery with no DVD player in the car. I didn't have one when I was a kid (didn't even have VCRs then) and I managed, so we'll make him learn about his surroundings instead. Maybe one day he'll want to drive around the country seeing the sights too =)
