Control Issues?

Sawyer is in tears with Jacob right now because I told Sawyer that I would be fine if Kamatz bit him or scratched him and made him bleed.

Why would I say such a thing?!
Because Sawyer is going through a phase of picking on/ hurting Kamatz for NO reason. I will NOT have this!
So, I play to Sawyer's weaknesses... blood, my disappointment in him, a spiritual plane (God's creation), etc.

That means there's now a bit of "good cop, bad cop" happening. Jake isn't negating anything I said but instead helping Sawyer understand WHY I said it.

Parenting at it's finest in my book.
