Chapter one speaks on the author and his son. His son speaks to his dad about being late and the author doesn't really want to hear what his son is saying but he needs toothpaste. He asks his son to get him some toothpaste but his son only gets the toothpaste if he admits that he is right. The author could have blown the situation out of proportion and began to yell but instead he agreed and his son got the toothpaste for him. This is a form of persuasion and also reverse psychology. The son just wanted to be right net the author really doesn't care so he agrees and gets what he originally wanted in the end.....wow, i wonder how many times my mom has used this trick on me and my brothers. Its probably been over a hundred but now i know mom.....now i know
