My youngest son was 5 yrs old, and our dog had some puppies that were now grown dogs, about 7 of them. 

They were running amuck, and killing the neighbor?s chickens, so I put them in a pen before we got in trouble with the law enforcement.  We might have to pay for those chickens, and who know how much that could be.  Those stupid dogs kept getting out of the pen; I would pin them up, and they would escape over and over again, those darn dogs were so smart. 

On this pretty day my kids and I had to go into town, but had to pin up the dogs before we left, so that they would not eat the neighbors chicken.  I ran them allllll down, run around the yard, in the bushes, and around cars etc?, and sealed up the dog pin.  On the drive to town, I wanted to have conversation with my kids, so I asked them for their opinion regarding the dogs, and if they would escape this time.  My youngest said, "They are going to get out," I in turn told him, "well I don't know, I really sealed up the pin real good this time, I don't think that they will get out now." 

My youngest son said, while looking out the back window with a look of wisdom on his face, "well, I think they will get out, my brain is new and yours is old and I think I am right."  I just looked at him, and had to laugh.  Well, we do tell our kids that new things are better. :-)
