A parenting conversation I never anticipated...

I just had to explain to my five year old son the difference between Americans and Decepticons.

Sometimes being a parent is both hilarious and awesome.

I'm not sure. I think there might still be some confusion about where Transformers fit in the grand scheme of things. Where I think we left it at was:

1. President Obama is an American (he learned this from class).
2. Both he, his friends, and his family are all Americans too (he learned this from me when I discovered he thought that the only person on planet earth who was an American was President Obama).

Therefore:

3. Decepticons are awesome (like President Obama, himself, his friends and his family) and therefore should be Americans too.

Or something. I'm waiting for the next leap of awesome five year old logic...
