Raising a Bunch of Wimps?
01/23/2012

I overheard this at a coffeeshop yesterday...


Woman #1: I'm so tired of playing the same games with my grandkids.

Woman #2: Do you play Candyland? Chutes & Ladders?

Woman #1: No, they're not allowed to play those games.

Woman #2: Why?

Woman #1: Because "it's too upsetting if they have to go backward and lose their spot." I swear, I'm so out of touch with this generation. All these 40 year-old college educated mothers are raising a bunch of wimps!

Couldn't help but laugh to myself.
