“Okay. On the whole, I have to look after your kids until you guys get home from your movie date, make sure they brush their teeth before going to bed, have them sleeping by eight… I got it down Mrs. Finnegan. Don’t worry. Just relax and enjoy your night with Mr. Finnegan. Yes, I have your number in case of emergencies. Go now or you won’t be able to catch the trailers.”

Children may look like cute cherubs but looks can really be deceiving. They are at the age when they are very curious about everything and they want to try out all sorts of things. Remember the days when you are five years old? Remember the questions you asked? How about your misadventures?
