In reply to the discussion: Woody Allen Speaks Out [View all]seabeyond
(110,159 posts)154. it isnt. what was the purpose? what was her reasoning. what are you arguing making this
statement.
i often took my kids for an icecream for all kinds of reasons. all kinds. rewards. to sit and talk and allow them to express. just for fun. because they got a shot. all kinds of reasons.
why did she take her for icecream, and how is that relevant for you?
