Re: HUMOR: Child Readiness Test



I agree that it does not get easier when children get older.  My 31 year old
son, along with his father, recently started out from Colorado to visit me in
Oregon.  Their vehicle broke down 3 times on the way out, and I had to wire them
money 3 times.  Now they are trying to get a reimbursement from a Service
Contract they had in effect on the vehicle, but didn't know how to use it.  The
company is refusing to pay and guess who is out the money - me!

Do these kids EVER grow up?  I am beginning to think not.
