I think his mom should send him out to play in the rain in order to keep her sanity. No, youi don’t catch cold from rain, you get it from other people’s germs.
Here, Calvin, take this dull knife, this unloaded gun, and this niceharmless plastic bag, and go play in the abandoned refrigeratorsover in the freeway median.
We used to love to play outside when it was raining when we were kids! You got to splash in puddles, play with an umbrella, watch the worms come out of the ground, etc. Although, I suppose after we were done with that, we’d come inside and drive mom crazy. Moms just can’t win . . .
Mud tag! And parent’s who understood that dirt and kids are a part of child-hood. Of course it didn’t hurt that we could strip in the garage and head straight to the bathtub afterwards.
What a specious argument! Your son is a good example? Rubbish! One swallow, does not, a summer make! Government think-tank? Yeah, we all know how useful they’ve proved in the past!
“pathatic & ingorant.” I wonder who is the the most ignorant?
Gee, on rainy days we played board games (checkers, chess, Monopoly, etc), we set up battle scenes with toy soldiers, watched TV or played with other indoor toys. ☺
Have to side with Tacopievlr. Knew plenty of kids who got a whipping and they just became more miserable and nasty.Calvin is clearly bored, how will a spanking cure that?

At this point in mom’s life it would be a very short ride.

Playing piano, organ and singing, that’s driving the neighbours grazy!

A touch of corporal punishment is called for. Unfortunately theremnants of Dr Spock still linger in the US psyche, so it won’t happen.

Hard to believe Calvin doesn’t enjoy playing in fresh mud. Maybe Hobbes doesn’t like the rain.

I suggest some subtle hobby for rainy days, like bagpipes.
