Sample Chapter from The Think Space

While waiting to be seated at a popular restaurant near our home, my wife and I noticed a young child, about three years old, making a fuss over something at a nearby table. The mother made one attempt to correct the situation. Seeing that her effort was being ignored, the mother did something that we had never seen a parent do in just that way.

Without any apparent emotion, she took the fussing child by the hand, walked right past us toward the entrance of the restaurant and stopped in the air lock between the inside and outside doors. With her back against the wall, she squatted down to the child's level, looked him in the eye and said something like, "We'll just stay here until you're finished with your fussing."
