Children Are A High Priority

(I’m sitting inside a fast food place, eating my fries, when a mother and her young daughter, who have just gotten their food, pass my table trying to find a place to sit.)

Mother: *pointing* “Let’s sit over there by the window.”

Young Daughter: *throwing hands up in the air* “I want the high chair!”

Mother: “No, you don’t need a high chair.”

Young Daughter: *throwing hands up in the air* “It makes me higher!“
