Legal has nothing to do with it. That little runt is welcome here anytime as long as he doesn't bring your pink shotgun or undies with him. Whoops! I guess I was supposed to keep your pink thong undies a secret.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I wouldn't wear them if you hadn't given them to me for our anniversary, sweetie.

Some don't take to this work... cool

That's what I do with my oldest. I expect him to know where we are and how to get us home in an emergency. We spend plenty of time in places without cell signal, and if I happen to get in bad shape or happen to crap out, I want him to be able to get himself or myself to safety.


I got some discussed looks from my wife's friend at church when she heard about my boys driving on the road out of our hunting area when theybwere 7 or 8. I let her express her opinion that was basically its against the law so wrong. Then I said true its against the law. Let me ask you a question if you dont mind. this is a 6 mile dead end road with zero houses most with no cell service. So what happens if I get hurt, sick or other wise unable to drive? I prefer the boys be confident enough to drive for help during a high stress time. So I don't believe im going to obey that law. Everyone in ear shot thout my stance and actions were primitive and smart BUT the preachers daughter stuck to her stance.
