“Lizzy, Dad’s having a tough time at work. Some mean people are making his team go through hoops on a project. He’s very frustrated. He’s probably staying a little late to settle things so he can leave with a clear conscience.” “What’s a clear conscience?” Lizzy asked. “It’s when you feel good about things, that you’ve done your best and that things will work out alright,” said Mom. Lizzy thought to herself, “Just how tough can it be making fun things like umbrellas?” The door slammed. The look on Dad’s face was not very happy. Lizzy, being a smart eight-year-old knew this was one of those times when you keep quiet until Dad gets happy again. 4
