Imminent Peril

    We find it easy to set limits when the issue is safety.... But 99 percent of the time there isn’t imminent danger; most of life takes place on more ambiguous ground, and children are experts at detecting ambivalence.

    For I’ve been born and I’ve been wed—
    All of man’s peril comes of bed.
