Scout.....

Mom: "Scout! Come and get your hair done."

Scout: "I don't want to get my hair done."

Mom: "Hurry Scout."

(Scout comes into the bathroom pouting and dragging her feet.)

Scout: "Why do I have to get my hair done? I don't want to."

Mom: "You should be glad that you have a mom who cares about you and helps you
to be clean and comb your hair."

Scout: "Well, Mowgli on Jungle Book didn't have a mom and he liked it."

Mom: "Yeah, and Mowgli only had one pair of undies too."

An unsatisfied silence followed...
