The kid has a point, Honey!
Sarah turned to Mark with a stare that spelled ”Shut up, NOW!”
The young mother had made sure, from the start, that her toddler would try all kinds of food, so he wouldn’t become picky. There was only one, easy rule. ”You can’t say you don’t like it, unless you tried it”.
It had worked just fine, until that lunch. Mark had boiled some eggs, and set their plates, not giving eggs to Sarah. Ben had noticed, and protested.
Now, he was pleading that Mom was breaking her own promise.
Rule, Ben… Not promise!

Quite an unusual word.

Do you know what does it mean? Couldn’t find an explanation on Google.

”If someone is fedifragous then they’ve broken a promise or pledge, or they’re faithless or disloyal. A fedifraction, likewise, is a breach of an oath or a broken promise.” – the definition I came upon 🙂
