I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow.

Cowboy is the name of my mom's dog. He came with the name. They got him from the rescue place. He is a good dog.
Dogs are mostly good.
I hope cowboys are mostly good, too.
But when they say "Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys," (actually they sing it more than they say it), I think that is wrong. Let your kids live their dreams.
And if you really don't want your kid to be a cowboy then when they ask for a horse, get them a sawhorse. Maybe they'll be a carpenter.
Or a seahorse and maybe they'll be a marine biologist.
See how easy it was to just redirect their dreams instead of squashing them?
Kids are fun.
