When our children were small, we as parents made regular arrangements to let the little ones play with each other.

This is also the case once with someone I had no connection with at all, but the children together did. The parent in question was quite a bit, exactly when it comes to cleaning and I didn't. So, this is! I was tidy, but it was safe to be messy, because living in the house is my motto. still!

During the visit of parent and playmate, the question was therefore regularly asked whether the floor was clean where her child was playing at that time.

Until my child dropped a cookie on the kitchen floor. I picked it up, wiped it off and gave it back to my son. She then asked why I let him eat that cookie that had just fallen to the floor.

I then said, “Why not? The mice just eat off the ground here too.'
