My mother taught me about STAMINA. --You'll sit there until all that spinach is gone.

I sat at the table on a summer night until it was dark. I ate the spinach because my friends were outside laughing and playing hide and seek. I learned that warm spinach goes down easier than cold. Love spinach, now.

There were starving children in China who didn’t have spinach.

Back then, parents were parents. Today, parents are bff and kids are growing up to be little bratty whiny kids who need day care at college.

My mother taught me HOW TO COUNT TO 1,000:

She would yell at me: “How many times do I have to tell you to clean your room?!!!”

You should have done what I did. Eat the good stuff first, pick a fight with sibling, get sent away from the table.

It worked every time.
