Family Court

Living with a lawyer, you learn to watch what you say -- now, my house is like living in Family Court because my son is going to law school, his sis is taking certain lawyering classes at her college and my youngest certainly isn't going to be left out.
Everything I talk about now has to have "valid sources".
Always tell my kids, "Do extra credit at school whenever it is offered -- you never know if you might need it! Learning never gets out of style. You can never learn too much."
My kids now say that by surfing we can learn "too much" without valid sources. They always want validity now when I tell them any info I find.
What can I say, they are my future lawyers...
Though, it is getting a little bit crazy around my house because everyone has to speak exactly what they mean or else they are getting the third degree from not only my husband, but now my eldest, and his sis joined in now, and now my youngest figures he can do it, too!
Family discussions now sound like cross examinations. hahaha

Parents raise adults.
Isn't that so true? People say we are raising "children"...
I have the whole phrase on the other, older computer in a folder I keep phrases and info I like -- have a little notebook for the same thing, but now that is full! Have to get another.
