Good or not?

Sometimes I can't tell whether or not to correct what my kids say. Are they really out of line?

Today, Vee and Kee were in that joking competition mode where they one-up each other with "My __ is better than yours."

I had been about to correct them, the words, "OK, now, enough of that" were on my lips ready to launch until I *listened* to what they were saying.

Kee: "My MOM is better than yours."

Vee: "Nuh, uh! Mine is better than yours!"

Wha...?

They know that if they make my brain spin fast enough, they can get away with just about anything.
