Amazing Kids psychology

My friend has twins boys. They are 3 years old. We were having a casual conversation yesterday. The twins are extremely energetic and active through the day, I sometimes wonder how she handles them through without going crazy any given day. One of them always throws tantrums and the other always climbs, jumps and do all sorts of havoc the normal 3 yrs olds creates around house.

On this particular day, the second one ('coz he was 3 mnts or so late in seeing the world) was throwing a big tantrum, screaming and crying for a toy the older twin had. Seeing this, the older twin gave the toy to this little guy. All the crying stopped. my friend, the mom was wondering about the behaviour and decided to ask the boy why he behaves in such way. Let me put it in her own words.

Mom: Why do you cry always when he has the toys?
YT: because if I cry, he always gives me the toy.

Man was I amazed at the cryptic answer!!!!! What problem solving skills this little one has? May be he will be a very successful Project Manager in future! Cute kids. God Bless them!
