		<description>With kids, who needs TV? :D What kills me is the passive voice kids naturally use. Like Dorian&#039;s answer to the oatmeal. &quot;It fell&quot;... I get that so often! &quot;It fell&quot; &quot;It broke&quot; &quot;It bounced off the table&quot;... Really? How? Was there a ghost in the house, did this inanimate object grow legs and run off the edge, what?!!? Just tell me and tell the truth! Geez! I&#039;m trying to get them to understand that I am ok with accidents, they happen. They know I am! I break more stuff than the kids do! I tell them that I need to know what happened, the sooner the better, you know, before lost pieces are vacuumed up and lost forever, etc. Yet, this &#039;non-blame&#039; comes naturally. It did it. Yea. All by itself. ;D</description>
