A conversation around the Zimney dinner table:

Maren: I want a chip.
Dad: How do you ask, Maren?
Maren: No.
Mom: May I have some chips please?
Dad: Yes! Maren, would you like a chip?
Maren: Yes, give me a chip now.
Mom: Maren if you can't use your 'pleases' and 'thank yous' you can't have any chips.
Maren: Mommy, PLEASE don't eat my chips.
Mom: OK, well---that's better.
Maren: Thank you.
