They were the most spoiled, unsocialized, insufferable brats you could imagine. Mrs. Aristus and I dreaded going for a visit.

Several years ago, they all started attending public schools. Now they are a delight to be around. Funny, witty, much better-behaved, and with the necessary social skills to make their way in the world than if they were still following stupid evangelical dogma.
