Sunday was absolutely non-negotiable. It was a non-issue... there was no discussion about it. That's what you did. And my sister and I both played three varsity sports all through high school. And I grew from the experience. My parents weren't perfect, and some of the dinner conversation (or, rather, inquisition) was torture. We learned about how to carry on a conversation, what manners are for, being interested in other people, etc. Most importantly, we learned to be a family. You choose your friends, you don't choose your family. <br /><br />TipAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
