i really want dd to be raised by wolves. think of it as a cut price steiner education. i have assembled various fur outfits for us to wear and we are meeting the head wolf later this week. surely it is worth howling at the moon occasionally and drooling over road kill to get dd the education she deserves?

Hmmm - you will have to move to one of the areas in green though en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wolf_distr.gif - have you considered all the consequences?

'Tis a reference to the books my name comes from, Bariatric. I am a wolf, and also a sorceress........

Don't be ridiculous, they will be able to tell that you're not really wolves. There's more to it than howling and drooling you know; DD won't smell right for a start. She could get expelled for that... or [gasp!] eaten. YABU.

Isn't that what Cubs is all about? The wolf metaphors disappear once they reach Scout age.

They'll suss you straightaway. You won't know the wolf-songs and poems and that. It's not enough to have skim read T*t you know!

lots of the woodcraft folk are raising their children with wolves, they say it makes them wonderfully creative adn you can just ignore the more extreme aspects of wolving, such as tearing young deer limb from limb
