And how there is rarely a connection between the regression and the new skill. I don't know if growing counts as a skill, exactly, but it seems like it would fit the general pattern.
It seems like everytime there is a new skill for us it feels like a regression, but I don't think it's the kid, I think it's me. It's like N or G do something I am not prepared for and it takes a while for all of us to figure out how to respond to that new skill.
I remember to this day the one time I ever knew that there was a gun in our house. My dad had borrowed a hunting rifle from someone for the weekend, and he made it a point to show each of us kids that he had the gun, where he was putting it and telling us that we were NOT to touch it and that he was putting the bullets somewhere completely elsewhere and out of our reach. When Dad got serious like that, you listened and obeyed, even when you were only five years old, like me.
BINAO = both is not an option
Wesley, Enterprise, Mal, Kaylee
ION - FLEET WEEK!
Dammit, why can't I live where they have a fleet....
(did you mean Moya?)
I totally did. Not sure where Moira came from.
Oops, but fixed now.
Gunn, Enterprise, Kirk, Uhura.
Moya is lovely, but I suspect that the Enterprise is more comfortable.
I'd be afraid that if I picked the Enterprise, Moya's feelings would be hurt.
Any real gun safety demonstration includes double checking for bullets, including the chamber, and never, ever, ever pointing a gun at a person unless you intend to shoot him. Pointing it at yourself is Darwin Award territory.
