Don’t laugh at another’s bogeyman
Here’s a tip: never mock someone else’s bogeyman, lest it be living in your cellar.
I’m old enough to know that there aren’t any monsters under my bed (no room, what with all the stuff I’ve stored there), but I do listen to my children. They’re older, so are their fears. And although a depressed economy, an educational system that doesn’t appear to meet their needs and the sudden onset of winter are enough to keep me awake at night, their fears are going in an unexpected direction.
