Never Crowd Youngsters About Their Private Affairs.

HomeFortune CookiesMiscellaneous Collections

Never crowd youngsters about their private affairs. When they are
growing up, they are nerve ends all over, and resent (quite properly)
any invasion of their privacy. Oh, sure, they'll make mistakes--but
that's their business, not yours. (YOU made your own mistakes, did you
not?)
-- Lazarus Long, from Robert A. Heinlein's "Time Enough For Love"
