“And they’ve got a real dragon too, I swear!”
Our nine-year-old son came back giddy from a play date at a friend’s house.
“You know what?” he said, overcome with excitement. “They’ve got a PlayStation, an Xbox, three iPods and four iPhones! And, and… they’ve got a huge TV.”
“Well,” my wife said, looking blankly at him as she searched for an answer. “Well, we do have a TV, you know.”
Our son looked at her even more blankly and said, “Yeah, but everybody’s got a TV.”
