The wrong couch Part II

So I called Charlotte yesterday with what I thought was a terrific solution. "Instead of rushing into buying a couch (which is the biggest piece of furniture in your apartment besides your bed, I informed the woman who invented feng shui) why don't you buy a few bean bag chairs until you know what you really want?" This is how she responded to my suggestion: "1. I'm not rushing into anything. I've spent a month shopping.  2. I know exactly what  I want.  3. Why would I spend money on bean bags when I could spend it on a couch? 4. Since you say you have trouble buying a couch why don't you get a few bean bag chairs yourself?"  What compelled me to offer her the  BBS. (Bean Bag Soution)? I think it was my way of keeping the Mother-Daughter Dialog going.  And the number one rule in the MDD is:  Say something stupid so your daughter can feel smart and superior.
