[nagdu] weird questions

[Lisa Irving]

Dianna,

years ago I was walking my then three year old son some place. A woman 
approached me and said, how nice, yoiur child is taking you for a walk." At 
that time my response was out of line. Much older and , for the most part, 
more calmer, these days I would mater of factly tell the woman that parents 
care for toddlers and take THEM for walks.

Lisa and Bernie
