I have a grandchild in Wales who is being taught at school to

Rather irresponsible of you and your grandchild's parents to
not teach your grandchild correct pronunciation of words.

Alas they dont know any better having been taught this. They dont appreciate
the seriousness of it and one cant point it out to them.

No, you are inventing excuses to legitimize your complaining.

I'm going to report you to Dr. Phil, Kira, and he's going to sue you
for copyright infringement. I'll represent him and take a third.

Works for me. We carry insurance for matters like this. Dr. Phil
takes his third, you take your third, I will take our third. All
are happy except for Ivan and our insurance company.

I am more a Dr. Laura type. I do not know if you boys enjoy Dr. Laura
over there on the funny side of the pond. She enjoys a radio broadcast
show over here, a nationwide radio show. I listen to her, daily.

This mother calls in to Dr. Laura, "My father is always telling our
daughter not to eat so much. Tells her to not become fat. He has no
business telling our girl how to eat."

Dr. Laura asks, "Are you fat?"

Caller is hesitant, "Well, I have a bit of weight problem."

Dr. Laura is assertive, "Are you fat or not?"

Mother Caller concedes, "Yes, I am fat."

Dr. Laura kicks her ass, "Well, there you go. I know your father tried to
stop you from becoming fat, this didn't work. Your father has every right
to stop his grandgirl from becoming fat like you. He wants his grandgirl
to be healthy and to live long. So, why don't you lose some of that fat,
present a good role model for your girl and listen to your father?"

CLICK! Conversation is over.

There are times when blunt truth is a best response.
