you want more interaction, here's a few ideas:

- #1 tell the kids that all your money has all been drained out of your accounts by the bad guys, that you've figured out how much money you're going to need from each kid every month to live on....one of three things will happen - dead silence, laughter or push back

- #2 hare what's in your current will, and ask them to get back to you with what they would be willing to individually start to do to increase their take....again one of three things will happen - dead silence, laughter/gasps or push back

- #3 let them know that you've decided to put everyone's name in a hat and on New Year's Day the one that comes out will be putting you up during the summer for that year....again - either dead silence or push back

- #4 share with them that due to covid-19 The Villages nudist club is no longer allowed access to any of the Rec Centers so they're meeting outside in groups of no more than 10 at a time and that your wondering if it would be best to go early and risk sunstroke / exposure or go in the early evening and risk getting Triple E from bug bites...again this can foster lively discussion or kill it

- #5 share with them that you both have always believed in free love and got into wife swopping during your honeymoon, and as a result you actually aren't sure which of the kids are only half brothers/sisters and who are full brothers/sisters...but that you have an idea and you'd like to share your thoughts with them.....I'd recommend holding this one for one of the holidays, but your choice

no need to thank me now
