More needy than greedy, seedy, weedy, creedy, reedy, or deedy. Hmmm, sounds like cousins of a group of dwarfs...although in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", there were only 5 weasels. BM> That's probably been the thought through the ages. Depending on the BM> example I would think some of it is the fault of the parents. Parents BM> shouldn't be shoo-ing their kids off to entertaining themselves and BM> instead playing with/being involved with them. OTOH the parents need BM> their 'alone time', plus the kids shouldn't 100% rely on the parents BM> for something to do. Years ago, parents would drop their kids off at the malls, and the kids would get into all sorts of trouble. Then, the parents would say "My kid would never do something like that!!". Yet, when shown the video evidence, they'd file a lawsuit for "invasion of privacy". BM> Is that due to accumulation over time?! Well, all of us are going to meet The Grim Reaper eventually. I think of the meme where this amateur radio operator gets confronted by The Grim Reaper, who tells him "That fancy, expensive HF rig, you ordered behind your wife's back?? It arrived today, and she signed for it. Do you want to go home first and face her, or do you just want to come with me now??". Daryl ....
