1. Though usually I'm making a joke. Like the 2miles in the snow, uphill
both ways. My kids don't get the joke. I don't know how I wound up w/ humor impaired kids. LOL.

3. My parents said two miles in the snow, holes in their shoes, and they
were dead serious. Maybe not uphill both ways.

2. Yes -- My 14-Year-Old Daughter Has Pointed it Out Many Times
Although it's usually not in a scolding way.

7. Yeah, to my nephew. :)
I think he enjoys it, though. We've always had a good relationship.
