Parents...

At one point during a game, the coach said to one of his young
players, "Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?"

The little boy nodded in the affirmative.

"Do you understand that what matters is whether we win together
as a team?"

The little boy nodded yes.

"So," the coach continued, "when a strike is called, or you're
out at first, you don't argue or curse or attack the umpire. Do
you understand all that?"

Again the little boy nodded.

"Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain that to
your mother."
 
Two little boys are sitting in the living room,

> The mother turns back to the 2 boys and says, "we're

> You two stay down here and watch TV, we'll be right back, Okay?".
> The two boys nodded OK. So the parents take off upstairs.

> The oldest of the 2 boys is old enough

> At the top of the stairs, he peeks into his mom and dad's
> bedroom and shakes his head.
> He goes back downstairs to his little brother.
> "Come with me", he says, and the 2 little boys tip toe
> back up the stairs.
> Halfway up the older boy turns to his brother and says
> "now I want you to keep in mind,
