why do kids, seem to like walking around naked?  My 8 year old has a facination with getting out of the tub, and walking around in nothing but a towel.  I guess it’s some sort of fashion statement.  It says: Look at me!!!!”  Then she argues over every little point, mainly because “it’s boring”.  I don’t know what’s happened with kids anymore.  They seem to think their parents owe them something.  Oh I know, we gave them life, isn’t that enough?  No, they need the latest Nike shoes, Farmer Bill brand shirts, and Dickie underwear, or else it’s the end of the world.  They aren’t “cool” unless they’ve put their parents into the poorhouse at least three or four times, and that’s just before they turn three.  Kids are great, mind you.  They do all sorts of stuff to help out, like change the channel on the TV.  they make great alarm clocks, too.  Namely, they get up at one minute before sunrise and scream “SUNS”S UP!!!” at the top of their lungs.  Oh well, guess we just have to deal.
