My child cannot cook.  In his defense, he is a brilliant, nerdy eleven year old that loves to read and dance and play games.  He makes great grades… but some things escape him. 

He will be so embarassed when he finds out I posted this one day, but… I left him with the responsibility to microwave a frozen meal for his lunch while I was busy blogging one day.  Moments later he came to me and said, “I pushed the button, and it didn’t open.” 

Yep, you know the little perforated semi-circle on the back of the box that you’re supposed to push in to create a thumb hole that allows you to rip the box open?  MmmHmm, in his literal little mind, there was apparently supposed to be an auto open once he pushed the button.  We laugh now, but talk to me in ten years.  It won’t be funny if he’s still living with me then.  He just needs guidance about nuance, right?  He just needs to understand not everything is literal?  This Call may allow you to pass along a little instruction to someone that needs the guidance.
