Cathy: Now what, mom? Mom: I didn't speak. I didn't look. Didn't glance. Didn't gesture. Didn't fidget. Didn't sigh. Cathy: But you worked so hard to stifle the impulse to do those things that the air particles around your head vibrated and made me all jumpy and defensive! Dad: Incredible. Mom: I know. Do I criticize the ridiculous accusation or compliment her keen observational skills?

Where is Cathy’s grandmother? I think her mom could use a visit from an annoying mother…then there would be 3 of them going crazy..hahahaha

Lightenup and Butterfly, I think you’re both right on! The presence of a mother might make any adult revert to something pretty pathetic. And adding a generation to the phenomenon could provide all involved with an instructive example of how silly it looks.
