Oh Behave

What does this mean? I have been told this many times and I have find myself telling my children to do so. I have client's that wish their spouses or family members would "be have". The reason for my question is due to two experiences. The first one was a young girl in my daughters dance class asking their teacher what "religion she was, if she drank caffeine and what did she do on Sunday's". The teacher handle herself very well she answered casually and moved on. This same girl was not appeased with the teachers answers and went on a litany of other question regarding her religious practices, towards the end this girl asked if "Chocolate had caffeine in it". The teacher responded with a "Yes". I believe this is the first time I have ever seen this girl stand so still and be silent. She seemed crushed by the answer, "All, chocolate?" she asked. I replied "Yes". This girl sat down in the middle of class she was so devastated.

The second experience was at the "Lady GaGa" concert I attended over the weekend. I won't say any more on that.

Both of these experiences have me asking "What does Behave mean?" Does it depended on your culture, religious, family, friends etc teachings or does it depended on the standards of society? I will be honest, the questions the girl from my daughters dance class offended me. What does it matter, if the teacher has a religious practice? Is it any business of this girl what religion the teacher is? As for the concert I loved it and felt I robbed myself of the total experience I didn't dress up. I didn't dress up as I thought I should behave. I know sounds counter productive. It was, I even had myself convinced it would have been funnier with more of my friends, as they wouldn't behave. Don't get me wrong I had a great time with my husband.

However, what caused me to behave? I am still confused on what that means. Maybe I will write about what I learn about it Thursday. Until than, Surrender & Trust.
