No child has ever died from:
1. Screaming his lungs out (the lungs don't literally come out)
2. Not getting the latest handheld, GPS-encoded musical thingamabob that all the other kids have. (Even if all the other kids really, truly do have it)
3. Eating cheese sticks exclusively from age 2 to 3
4. Taking 30 seconds to think about what he's thankful for before lunging for the sweet potatoes
5. The heartbreak of a hopelessly twisted Slinky
6. Having to put her arm around her brother for five seconds for your family Christmas-card photo
7. Being left with-gasp!-Dad while you go off for a much-deserved girls' weekend
8. Seeing the Hannah Montana movie the day after it opens
9. Having to wait till he's older before he gets to use the pocket-knife his clueless uncle got him for his birthday
10. Too many hugs and kisses
