I was flabbergasted when Francesca bolted out that piece of wisdom! With the Tiger Woods fiasco and the endless stories of heretofore clean cut "sports figures" and "politicians" I could not imagine where on God's green earth Francesca came up with that idea. Was she watching the endless coverage of the "Tiger" on CNN and Fox? Was she reading the countless blogs that were covering the Tiger travails? How about the hundreds of advice columns telling Tiger how to redeem himself? Fortunately, no to all of those questions.
The answer turned out to be some wisdom that she intuited from watching of all things "Hannah Montana" on the Disney channel. Francesca explained that Robbie Ray, Hannah Montana's father on the show, was dating a woman. A flash back in a previous episode showed Hannah's mother giving Hannah advice. In Francesca's mind there was something odd going on. On the show, Hannah's mother has passed on. Not fully realizing this, Francesca made the judgement that what she saw was "not right."
Francesca said, "Daddy you shouldn't date another girl when you are married. That's not right and not very nice." "Francesca," I said, "Daddy agrees."
