"Daphene, I know you want to fit in and everything, but that dosen't mean you HAVE to be the first to fall in 'love' with every new boy that comes around."I was trying to convince Daphene to stay a kid while she could, to not rush into all that mushy-gushy girl-boy stuff. It wasn't working. "What, you want me to stay unmarried, lonely, and never have kids?" she asked. "No, I just want you to stay Daphene. The Daphene you always have been. Not Daphene always surrounded by boys like some popular girl"
