9. What kind of problem?

Clearly, as an adult supervising the kids you escort the woman out and you have some responsibility to figure out what's going on and then deal with it appropriately, but that's where the problem ends. Let the social workers deal with the problem. All the kids need to know, if they even ask, is that somebody's mom got a little crazy, but she's getting help now.

I saw weirder stuff than that as a kid and my parents never made a big deal of it. We raised our own kids the same way. My own kids are over 21 now, but when they were young and we were visiting San Francisco or any of my crazy relatives we never knew what they might see.

Funniest thing I ever saw was my great-grandma's mean old rooster chasing my naked grandpa across the pasture. He'd been skinny dipping in the canal and the rooster got between him and his clothes so he decided to make a mad dash for the house.

The weirdest thing we ever saw with our kids was that naked guy who inflates his scrotum as some kind of protest, I don't remember what. But don't google that if you are squeamish... what has been seen cannot be unseen.
