The Gift of Gab

Today I was telling a new friend about the book "Protecting the Gift." I quoted her a statistic from the book that says your child is more likely to die of a heart attack than be kidnapped. Of course her answer was, "My son died of a heart attack at 16 months."

I've decided I'm never talking again.

Dang. I myself have ask way too many non-pregnant women when they where due.

Well, doesn't that kind of prove the statistic, though? Now you know one person whose child died of a heart attack, and zero (I presume) whose child was kidnapped. :)

Keep talking, Alyson. We can never know everybody's sensitivities ahead of time.
