Griffen got mugged <| sep |> As a parent , I ' ve used them in the past and don ' t have a problem with them . I ' m using it to prevent my kids from a pancake in the parking lot of becoming lost taken in a mall or other public place . Control your kids is a fine theory , but sometimes the kids just don ' t feel like listening . Now , certainly there are ways to bring them back into line , some that are socially approved , some not so much so . I suppose i could just put an end to our little outing because they aren ' t behaving , but that ' s not always practical or possible . Containment is a good option in these circumstances . <| sep |> Let ' s make a pact to go to every concert . <| sep |> Honestly , everything . I can look back on any event and think , wow okay that definitely needed to happen . And maybe it ' s not so much that everything happens for a reason , but that no matter what happens , something good can come out of it .
