It always amazes me that my kid, who's in ninth grade, still has to explain the concept of adoption to peers. That's just messed up. If they don't understand it, it's a sure bet their parents and families don't understand it.
What a world.
I'm with you on the huff. When my child was little, I had to be very patient and explain things to others in words I wouldn't have minded hearing parroted back, because that's what little kids do. So the more flippant answers never made it out of my mouth, but I had some really good comebacks just ready and waiting.
