If you can't laugh at yourself.....

I am not a morning person. NOT! I apparently can't even train my body to be alert in the morning. On August 25th of this year, the kids started back to school and I started back to work. Due to having to be ready for work when we head off to school, I must get up at 5:50 in the morning. OK, that having been said, I rarely make it out of bed without hitting the snooze. I also have a "second" or "back-up" alarm, because I have been known to turn it off and just go back to sleep. Three weeks of training is apparently not enough.

A question for Moms.

While trying to walk out of a discount store a few minutes ago, a crowd had formed at the door and several employees and the security/off-duty police were arresting a shoplifter.  If confronted with this and you had your children with you would you rush out of the store the other direction to avoid them seeing something like that? Or would you let your children watch and discuss things after?
