But no, I was not advocating her being confrontational. I am impressed by her conduct, but I think it would have been better for her not to have further contact, or to accept a hug.

And this is so many more brain cycles than I expected to use today, but I’m waiting for my wife to finish making cupcakes so we can go to bed.
