About 2 years ago, when we owned a cat and it behaved badly, my mom would warn it and shout "I'm gonna return you back to the pet shop!" So my 6 year old brother made these big eyes, looked up at my mom and asked in a low voice, "If I don't behave, will you take me back to the Kid Shop?" And my mom assured him of that and to this day, he still believes another kid will take his place if he misbehaves.
