You state plainly the problem, then when I give it to you straight you come back with all these excuses. What's a guy like me supposed to do with that, Molly? You state that your husband is soft. Now he's a great intellectual? You state that your kid is fat. Now, he's got a troubling disease? You state that you have mixed emotions about standing up for the boy, thus, usurping your husband's natural authority. Now, how dare I give proper opinion on an issue I excel and have demonstrated experience in? How dare I????
