Today's Parenting

It is impossible that you do not notice your rambunctious son running up and down the aisle. His screams alone would pierce the consciousness of anyone who is just short of comatose. There is not one person here who thinks anything but horrendous thoughts about you (and yours). And while I certainly don't think much of the boy himself, there is no way he deserves the whole blame. So continue to snap your gum and prattle on the cell phone. Adolescence can't come soon enough. May you reap the rewards from the seeds you have planted by ignoring discipline and staying so self-involved that you raised a hellion whose worst sins will be against dear old mom.
