I spent quite a bit of time today trying to write a "thank you" card to a coworker's 8-year old son, who voluntarily donated 1/3 of his annual allowance to his (and my) charity of choice for 2005. It was truly ridiculous.
I kept going back to the card his mom had written: "[Son] gets $3 a week, $1 of which he has to put into savings, $1 of which he can spend (but never does) and $1 of which he gives to the charity of his choice."
He's EIGHT... That's damn fine parenting in my book.
