Right off the cuff I'd say choice number three but after giving it a minute, I'm going to have to go with the Listerine (sorry, Dad).

Chris, I think I'm about 6 years old. It's really affecting my marriage, especially the supermarket tantrums. She hates those. (insert winking emoticon here: _____ )
