    Whoever came up with that one should be shot.  ;)

    Update:  Reading my answer here I want to add that I do believe that "because I said so" is the right mindset but that phrase is ugly.  Yes, minding parents is what young children should be expected to do.  Expectation is everything when parenting.

    I don't know; there would be a very long list.  Just today she said to me, "You try my soul."  That is taken from our beloved founder, Thomas Paine.  She can really come out with some doozies.

    You’d better answer me when I ask you something, do you understand?
    You have an answer for everything, don’t you?
