The towel rail in the downstairs bathroom was a bit loose, so I put some glue on it, which sets in about 5 minutes, but doesn't reach full strength for 24 hours, so I put a fairly big 'Do Not Touch' sign on it .

The next day Thor emerges from said bathroom..
"Daddy why is there a do not touch sign on the towel rail in the bathroom, cause I was going to touch it to see why, but then I thought I might get into big trouble and sent to bed or something, and I haven't had dinner yet so then I get sent to bed hungry, so I didn't"

This is a landmark moment, actions, consequences, forethought and restraint and he's only 9, maybe he might make it to 10.
