She obviously doesn’t understand the concept of the debt ceiling

I gave Sassy her own email address this summer.  She’s changing schools and I wanted her to be able to stay in touch with her friends. She also emails her grandmothers and a few other people.

She has asked me repeatedly for the last several days if I received an email from her.  I finally found it in an email account I hadn’t expected.  Here is our exchange.

Subject: Hi mom

Hi mom I thought that I would let you know that I need a raise in my allowance!

I found your email.  Allowance? What allowance?  I’ve never heard of it.
Love Mom

Why do you suppose she sent this via email? I can only suppose she wanted official record of her written request.

I suspect her next step will be a subpoena.
