And then I laughed til I cried

A conversation from today that had me in tears:

Alexander was playing a video game: "Lego Star Wars" (which, for the record, is completely innapropriate for a four-year-old and is going back in "the vault" for a couple years).

Alexander: Mommy, that guy with the hat is on my team. But he doesn't have a sword or a shooter.

Me: Well, maybe he doesn't like to fight.

Alexander: Yeah, and neither does this trash can (said while repeatedly beating R2D2 over the head with a sword).

Where are the parents!! A four year old is certainly old enough to know who R2D2 is. As one of only two characters to appear in every episode of the Star Wars saga (THE epic tale of power and redemption of our time!), even young children should be able to recognize R2D2.
Ach, junge!!!
