"They are carrying on at my 12 year old's school about all the cuts and horror coming this way as a result. My son asked me to explain it. I told him that he gets ten dollars a week this year for his allowance. I told him I was planning on giving him thirteen dollars a week next year, but due to increased household costs I was reducing it to twelve dollars allowance next year. I asked him if he thought that was a cut in his allowance, and he said heck no, and thanks for the increase."

EXCELLENT! So what is it again I'm too busy to understand?

I’d say you’re too busy to understand that your 12 yr. old just suckered you into giving him a $2.00/wk raise. ;-)
