The middle child has found that if he prefaces his admission of guilt with, "Oh mommy, I'm reery, reery sorry. It was reery just an accident." that I will not go into default mommy freak out mode, regardless of the offense. His little brain cooked up the scheme once and he tried it out with major success. Now it's standard.
Adds to my theory that manipulation might just be innate.
