Parenting Advice: When in Doubt, Just Ask

One of the favorite parts of our job are the people. They say some great things sometimes. I got some good advice today. I saw a 4 yr old boy this afternoon. He had an accident over the holiday weekend. The mom said he came up to her with a BOTTLE ROCKET IN HIS HAND and asked her if HE COULD LIGHT IT OFF. The mom told him, "Let's ask dad and see what he thinks." Next thing you know I'm seeing the kid in the office today. He'll be fine so it's ok to laugh I think. That's some good advice. I'll remember that in 4 yrs.
