Determining if the mulch that came home in my child’s lunchbox is special mulch, and must be saved, or just regular mulch that somehow fell in?
(Asking the child might cause regular “he-didn’t-know-it-was-there” mulch to be magically transformed into “special must-save-forever” mulch, so asking is not an option.)
Never, ever ask. Definitely.

I also don’t ask about bits of string I find on the kitchen floor, and cut up scraps of paper I find under the art table. Though I have my suspicions they were For Something at one time, after three or four days I declare them abandoned.
