The Family Constitution

There's a certain sense of having arrived as a parent when you consider drafting a family constitution that includes the following:

Spitting
There shall be no recreational spitting indoors; recreational spitting may only be done outdoors. Indoor spitting is limited to that which is purely functional and necessary, including but not limited to spitting after brushing of one's teeth or spitting out of a particular bite of food that is deemed unpalatable.


I can only imagine that Addie will provide us with plenty of additional content for this yet-undrafted family constitution.
