Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for May 18, 2017

Her wittle boy’s in trouble so she must rescue him?

That’s pretty much exactly how it works. For some Moms, anyway.

You gotta understand: in their 20s, it was only a few weeks ago (in parent-brain time) that they were babies.

Mom sense is tingling.

Having adult children, you do want to rescue them like you could when they were small. The trick is not teaching them it’s ok to stumble, but teaching yourself it’s OK to let them.

Ok why is Janis being self righteous?

We’ll because her chair is turned over and her fists are clenched.

At least it wasn’t the “Dad Signal.” A giant dollar sign in the sky.

It’s all over. They’re gone.

the “look”….

Arlo knows his fate is sealed. Start packing for the coast.

Some kids never grow up because their parents never let them. Another reason is without a draft a lot of kids never enter the military which was a route for a lot of kids to finally grow up.
