    There are people who do get it!

    While leaving the mall today, a little boy in a stroller behind me asked his mother, "Is that a skirt that guy has on?"

    "No, it's a kilt," she replied.

    "Why's he wearing it?" he asked.

    (and here's the kicker)

    "Well, because he wants to!" she told him, smiling at me, then going on her merry way.

    It brightened my day.

    Yes, and ironically quite the counterpoint to your experience posted today.

    Thank you,

    My point exactly! Some mothers DO know how to raise their children.

    Great to hear! It is always refereshing to hear that there are those who do "get it" out there. The woman sounds like a very open minded and understanding one. Perhaps she , in her kind response, has opened the door for her little fellow to be a kiltie!
