Cats didn't have to think. They just had to know what they wanted. Humans had to do the thinking. That's what they were for, from Terry Pratchett's book, The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents. listen
Anna was trying to bite Reed. Just as I was going to intercede, Reed grabbed a fold of his shirt, held it out to Anna, and pleaded: "Here, if you're gonna bite something. . .bite my shirt!"
What a great lesson in parenting. Don't just tell your child "No!", but give them an acceptable alternative. Thanks for the lesson, Reed.
I chose Reed's statement as the title of this blog because it represents this blog's purpose: To record teachable moments.
