So true - it works for 15 year olds (and come to think of it some 25 year olds these days!)
Sounds like my almost-3 year old’s feelings about toilet training.
I like Nick’s logic. You’ve got to listen to the This American Life (www.thislife.org) from last week titled Kid Logic.
In a way it reminds me of entrepreneurs logic. Dropping out of Harvard to start a software business when everyone knows all the money’s in hardware? You’ve got to be crazy.
