I originally had four captions for this cartoon and never picked one. so you get to choose your own adventure from the following list:

1. "My therapist thinks I have boundary issues."
2. "It's the next 'helicopter parenting': 'opossum parenting'."
3. "The new dependent tax laws are strange."
4. "'Let's sell the second car,' he said. 'We don't need the extra expense,' he said."

(personally I prefer #4. stay-at-home parents should be paid a salary from the government for their work.)
