Little Johnny Plays Mommy and Daddy (clean) Ten year old Johnny rushes home from school. He invades the fridge and is scooping out some cherry vanilla ice cream... when his mother enters the kitchen She says, Put that away Johnny. You cant have ice cream now. Its too close to supper time. Go outside and play. Johnny whimpers and says, Theres no one to play with. Trying to placate him, she says, OK. Ill play with you. What do you want to play? He says, I wanna play Mommy and Daddy. Trying not to register surprise, and to further appease him, she says, Fine, Ill play. What do I do? Johnny says, You go up to the bedroom and lie down. Figuring that she can easily control the situation... Mom goes upstairs. Johnny, feeling a bit cocky, swaggers down the hall and opens the utility closet. He dons his fathers old fishing hat. As he starts up the stairs he notices a cigarette butt in the ashtray on the end table. He picks it up and slips it in the corner of his mouth. At the top of the stairs he moves to the bedroom doorway. His mother raises up and says, What do I do now? In a gruff manner, Johnny says, Get your butt downstairs, and get that kid some ice cream!
