Fast Forwarding Previews

Location: Home

*Felicia put on a cartoon in Mandarin for the kids to watch while they eat and she finishes making their lunches and getting ready*
Aylen [to Felicia]: "Finally, it is starting! Why didn't you fast forward the previews?"
Felicia: "Because you didn't ask me to."
Aylen: "Mom! Fast forwarding the previews is like clapping at the end of a performance. Nobody asks you to clap. You just do it, because it's what you are supposed to do. You clap at the end of performances. You fast forward previews. You just do these things."
Felicia: "Wow! That is a great analogy. Did you come up with that on your own?"
*Aylen sights*
Aylen: "Of course I did."
