Richmond - The Editor, You are taken out for dinner by your mom and dad. You sit there bored, while waiting for your dinner to arrive.So you sit there and text your friends on your expensive all-purpose phone, probably paid for by your parents.
Richmond - The Editor, You are taken out for dinner by your mom and dad. You sit there bored, while waiting for your dinner to arrive.So you sit there and text your friends on your expensive all-purpose phone, probably paid for by your parents.You look like an only child, to whom your parents are bending over to please.Then, I, a rude stranger, lean over to you and tell you to put away your phone and instead talk to your parents, who love you and have brought you here to have a nice dinner with them. Just you! "Life is too short," I say. "Talk to your mom and dad, in person."My husband, embarrassed, drags me away, and apologizes on my behalf.But, I say, "Listen to me, because I've been there, life's too short, enjoy the moment! Enjoy your time with them."Paula JohalRichmond
