Laugh a little
Are my sons OK?
Leah is an old fashioned type of mother. She has three teenage sons and she always wants re-assurances from them that they are going out with the ‘right kind’ of girl. Leah has read too many stories in the Jewish Chronicle newspaper of boys being led astray by the wrong kinds of girl.
Two of Leah’s sons are always telling her of the girls they meet, which satisfies her, but as for Benjy, her eldest, no such luck. He’s very cagey and secretive and tells her nothing – in fact he never mentions his girlfriends at all. Leah is sure something is not quite right, but she doesn’t know what.
This is aggravating her so much that one evening, as soon as Benjy goes out, she goes into his room and starts to look through his pockets. At last she finds something. It’s a silver and gold make-up case and on it is written: -

"Oy, thank God," she says aloud. "At least I now know that Benjy is going out with Jewish girls."
