Because 2 Plus 2 Makes 4

Getting Simon to eat is ridiculous (see "We Paid Him To Eat" On My Cousins Underwear Blog) so meal time is stressful. The other night we were trying to make him eat 6 bites of something. He had already eaten four bites so I say, "Simon you only have two bites left!"

And then he says, "Then I'm done!"
And then I say, "No, you're not done yet. You have only had four bites"
And then he says, "So, now I'm done because two plus two equals four! See! I already had two more bites."

I won't be teaching eliza math until she turns 20.
