I love it that you used that example, since so many of us can connect to it. Judith – My mother also often used the “jumping off a bridge” line, and I then used it with my children.

When I was a child, I made friends with a girl across the street who was a little older than I. Her parents let her do anything she wanted. I thought I should be given the same latitude. Many was the time I begged to go with my new friend to some exotic location three blocks away or to the "little store" on the hill to buy some bubble gum. And when I was told no and whined, "but Susan gets to go," my mother would say, "If Susan jumped off a bridge, would you?" Even at age five, I couldn't argue with her logic. I always hated when my mother was right. And she was right most of the time. My mother was a very practical person.

Actually, you're quite the opposite of silly - you give us all so much inspiration and food for thought on a daily basis - don't know how you do it. I can't seem to get 1/2 my "stuff" done each day.
