The new family in the neighborhood overslept and
their six-year-old daughter missed her school bus.
The father, though late for work himself, had to
drive her. Since he did not know the way, he said
that she would have to direct him to the school.
They rode several blocks before she told him to
turn the first time, several more before she
indicated another turn. This went on for 20
minutes - but when they finally reached the
school, it proved to be only a short distance from
their home. The father, much annoyed, asked his
daughter why she'd led him around in such a
circle. The child explained, "That's the way the
school bus goes, Daddy. It's the only way I
know."
