Emancipated at 16

 While camping this weekend, Amy insisted I help her with her toileting tasks. I don't mind, but at 11, I feel she is probably old enough to do such "projects" on her own. After our second trip, I asked her when she thought she would be old enough to do her own business. 

Without missing a beat she replied, "I need you to help me poop until I'm 16 years old." 

Slightly astonished, I asked how she had decided on age 16.

"I made it up arbitrarily," was her unconcerned reply.
