No matter how many times you say, "If you guys get hurt while you're horsing around, especially after I've asked you to stop and you didn't, I'm not going to feel sorry for you," when you have one son with his hand closed in the car door because the other son shut the door too quickly because trapped-hand son was chasing him, you still do. You completely feel sorry for him.
Until about an hour later, when it becomes clear that no hand-harm was done. Only then can you go back to your "I told you so" and "Every choice has a consequence" and "You made your bed, now lie in it" indifference. But only then.
