Kids Who Are Doing Just Fine Without Your So-Called ‘Rules’

Kids are very strange. They all seem to march to the beat of their own drum and don't really care what other people think. It's really a great way to live your life. I do respect a person who looks at the way you do things and thinks, "nope, that's not for me!" and starts doing things their own way.

Who needs rules, anyway?

There are worse snacks your little kid could sit on the couch and eat with scissors, but it's still a little strange. Aren't there kitchen scissors she can use instead of using craft scissors?

Honestly, this is all the math you really need to know in the real world, because we all have phones now that have calculators and Google on them. Life should be more about wrong answers and rainbows.
