The dangers of pacifism

We were playing in the backyard, and I heard Zander say, "All done! All done, itsy bitsy spider! ALL DONE ITSY BITSY SPIDER!!!" I looked over and he was yelling at a mosquito biting his arm. It's great that he was using his words to express his needs, but I guess I have to teach him that there are certain situations where violence may be the best solution. What a sweet kiddo.
