Matthew likes to volunteer to give talks in Sunday School. I guess he likes the attention, but his mom and I are tired of it, because we (well, mostly Rachel) do 90% of the work preparing the talk.
This time I sat him at the table with a paper and pencil and told him to get started. He complained and complained about how he couldn't do it. "If you don't want to prepare a talk, volunteer to read a scripture or say a prayer instead," I told him.
Rachel rescued him eventually, but with luck that will be enough to get him to think twice next time.
