Running Away Back Home

David Feinberg was having some friction with his son Sammy. Sammy got so upset he got some of his clothes, his teddy bear and his piggy bank and proudly announced, "I'm running away from home!"

David decided to talk things out logically with him. "What if you get hungry?" he asked.

"Then I'll come home and eat!" Sammy declared.

"And what if you run out of money?"

"I will come home and get some!" replied Sammy.

David made a final attempt, "What if your clothes get dirty?"

"Then I'll come home and let mommy wash them," was the reply.

David shook his head and exclaimed, "This kid is not running away from home; he's going off to college."
