Opus 2015-114: On the Street: Setting an Example

I saw a tree and realized where the nuts were coming from.

I was waiting at a signal.  Next to me was the left turn lane.  The green arrow came on and the car beside me did not move.  There was a toot from the car behind and I looked over to see a lady looking up from her cell phone.  As she pulled out I caught a bumper sticker that informed me that her child was an honor student at one of the nearby schools.

I wonder if that child ever hides his phone under the desk and sends text messages.  I wonder where that behavior was learned.  We assume it is from other students. 

Maybe not.

  1. I see adults doing childish things every day.

    1. That gives a different slant on the liberal idea of children acting like adults.

      Grace and peace.
