Lessons I Learned From The Mentor

Let's see how many we can come up with!

1. When you're having fun with your kids at your winter cabin while getting ready to leave, be prepared to get into an accident and lose one of your children.
2. When you're about to collide with a parked car on a snowy, slick road, forget about your brakes. Just swerve to avoid the vehicle.
3. When your oldest child dies, you should use it as an excuse to abandon your family and drink all the time. They'll forgive you soon enough.
4. A struggling couple can get into a loud argument over moving on from their child's death and not attract the attention of their other child.
5. When your daughter refuses to go to school, it's OK to let her come with you to your work instead of school.
6. A man can enter a crowded restaurant and start shouting loudly at a young woman and nobody will intervene.
7. If one of your male teachers eagerly accepts the responsibility of mentoring a new female teacher, give him the job without a second thought.
8. When you catch a man going through a woman's desk, don't bother to tell the woman whom the desk belongs to.
9. Remember to be vigilant at all times, even when having lunch with a friend, just in case your new mentor is stalking you.
10. Always keep your curtains closed when having sex with the husband your having marital troubles with, lest your obsessive mentor is watching you.
