Judy ~ so true LOL... if our mom's knew everything
 Many times, my brother, and myself talk about "those days" ... i know things about him, i would never in a million years share with my mom - and he knows everything about me, most of those things he will take to hes grave one day, unshared with anyone.

Did you ever think that she really wasn't listening at all? I've very often had an entire "conversation" with my students, and certain adults, where I could never tell you what they had been talking about. Just tuned them right out and said mmhmm in appropriate places.

Unfortunately, she took it all in! Now that I am a parent, I know there are places I just don't want to go. But I do think my parents were going along with the parenting advice of the 60's. Hopefully, we've modified that into something that works better - social evolution.
