Imagine being in Susan Collins' family:

“Yes dear. I am troubled and deeply concerned that you went to the motel with that man and I’m undecided as to whether I would admonish you not to exhibit that untoward behavior again or should I send a sternly-worded letter to your mother in order that she might adjudicate appropriate restrictions upon your ways and means of transportation and conveyance.”

Later:
“I must admit that I’m both surprised and shocked that you now exhibit anger toward your parent. Just because you are forty-two years old does not mean that you are not morally responsible to your family. You don’t want to be a hand towel in a public rest room dear.”
