things to write about later:

While I don't believe in the truth, Frey is still an asshole, or a sociopath. I haven't decided which.

Just because really smart kids are frequently challening to teach and raise, does not mean every kid, whose parents think they are a handful and foster conditions that make them more of a handful, is a fucking genius. But then of course in America everyone wants their kid to be a genius, so why the hell not let them get away with all sorts of crap and then be all hippy dippy about it to prove that they unique and evolutionarily advanced. In other words, wankity wank wank: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/01/12/fashion/thursdaystyles/12INDIGO.html

Can we please institute a law that says anyone who decides to breed and raise children MUST be trained and issued parenting licenses?

I am frequently tempted by that thought. Then I remind myself that if such a law is passed, I'm not going to be the one handing out the licenses.

True -- I'd say let's find some nice older folks who have five or six successful and happy kids and grandkids of their own -- the proof, is after all, in the pudding.
