Truth vs. Manners

Well, it's happened.

I was shopping this evening with the children. Andrew observed a young woman in the aisle across from us. She had hair that had been dyed all the colors of the rainbow and multiple facial piercings. He stared at her.

"You look nuts," he said to her.

I was embarrassed. Malkhos was proud.

Perhaps you can instruct him not to be such a little fascist. Let him chew that one over. (I would be proud as well, however.)

Maybe I will.

He's so cunning, though; likely he'll seek to defend his fascist attitudes.
