Logic Behind All Logics

Sienna has been playing her "If you do this, you are my friend; else, you are not..." logic with us. Yesterday she told Daddy he was not a good Daddy because he didn't do what she wanted. In his self-defense, Daddy asserted, "I am always your good Daddy." Sienna was not convinced. "Prove it," she demanded.

The other day, she insisted that she open a new cosmetic package I have. I said no. She started her reasoning, "Mommy, sharing is caring... ..."

This 5-year-old of mine plays into my conviction that there isn't pure objective logic. Logic exists only when it's being used by a subjective mind.
