Here goes:<BR/>First, if you are paying for your kid to shoveling animal poo, just send him to our ranch. Normally, we would pay a kid for this, but since you are generous enough for you to pay FOR your kid doing it, we'd love to have him.<BR/>Mike Wallacing him? Seriously? How pissed are you going to be if I steal that for my everyday life.<BR/>On a more serious note, it is expected for children to notice differences and be confused by them. Totally natural, really. However, it is not natural for adults to cultivate it into a means of oppression like what still happens in the some families. You dealt with this the best way a parent could, you talked to him without freaking out.Shonda Littlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14411603868888972136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-79355093976008398782008-08-11T12:16:00.000-04:002008-08-11T12:16:00.000-04:00Way to go, AHAU, you managed to teach your kid a l...Way to go, AHAU, you managed to teach your kid a life lesson AND entertain us all at the same time.
