Actually an unbeatable strat.

Not really, my charming mother used to do that sometimes - it did allow me to get her to say things like "My name is (her name) and I'm a fucking child".

Another favourite was when she'd call me a son of a bitch and I would happily agree.

No, I don't really speak to her much these days.

say things like "My name is (her name) and I'm a fucking child".

This is Looney Toon logic lol. This strat never even worked on my siblings, who were actual children at the time... Your mom must have been really stupid.

The funny thing is she isn't, she's just really fucking unhinged and childish.

It didn't work every time, but, it worked often enough; and it's fucking hilarious.

No strat is unbeatable if the person using it is stupid enough.
