Transcript:
Mom: Want anything? Cathy: No, thanks. Mom: Here cathy! You have the nice hot piece of toast. I'll have the burned crust. Cathy: That used to make me crazy, mom, but I'm not trying to change you anymore. Now I lovingly accept our silly little differences as part of my heritage. I don't need to lock horns with you anymore. Don't need to top you...rebel against you...or try to reform you! I can't control you. I can only control my response to you...and I joyfully choose to step back and let you be you! Mom: Here's a fresh fruit salad. I'll just have these shriveled old grapes. Cathy: For crying out loud, mom! Show some self-respect! Mom: I win. Cathy: I quit.
