Running out of Options, so we Repeat...

Liberty likes to watch movies. Even midway through the first movie, she'll have another picked out. It's hard to say no sometimes, but you know you have to in order to preserve your sanity. But, I've found that she's also quite willing to watch something I picked out as well --is it because I have good taste or does she like me that much?-- and Jessie admits to not having censored their movies, so I don't really have to worry about it being scary, like "The Nightmare Before Christmas," or being a little violent, like "Walking Tall." However, today, I'm just not in the mood to pore over the many titles my sister has to offer, so I'm letting her take over, and she picked "Monsters, Inc" which, if I'm not much mistaken, we've already watched two times over the last few days.
Do I regret letting her make the choice?
Not necessarily...
Am I sick of the movie, yet?
Not really...
Do I want to turn it off anyway?
Yes, actually, I do...
But she's just so happy watching it, and she gets so into it, I can't bear to have her crying at me...
Is this bad parenting or not? I'm really not sure...but no one can really complain, because she's dressed, she's fed, she's HAPPY. Isn't that what counts?

Time to do a few dishes... :)
