Hitting

The kids hit each other with some regularity. Usually it's Elizabeth hitting Parker or Miranda for some good reason, but sometimes Miranda proactively hits Elizabeth for fun. Parker generally only hits Elizabeth and only when she is bugging him. Like today.

I didn't see the origin of the problem, but at some point Elizabeth was on the couch where Parker wanted to be (of course). Elizabeth was saying NO! So Parker hits her on the chest with an open hand. And since Elizabeth was naked (of course), this left a very red hand print on her body.

After Parker's time out, he said to Elizabeth, I'm sorry I hit you, but you don't say NO when I want to go on the couch.

Elizabeth replied, Parker go couch now.

Done.
