1. Fern: Children should be raised to respect rules and the rights of other persons. And when they don't, they should receive appropriate discipline.

We must not let this infringement of our liberties get started, or there will be no stopping it.
6. It rains a lot in San Diego during the summer. I know because I spent two weekends in San Diego last summer, and both times it rained like cats and dogs.
