Can I Have a Mulligan
When our kids were small, we would always allow for "mulligans." A mulligan is a fresh start, a do-over, forgiveness for a poor shot. I can remember that mulligans were especially crucial in mini-golf. The little ones didn't know how to play well, and we wanted them not to get frustrated so they would keep trying to get better at the game. As they grew, mulligans decreased as lessons were learned. However, as a teen, I remember them repenting for lack of judgment, asking, "Mom, I regret doing that and wish I could do it all over again. Why doesn't life have more mulligans?" How many of us wish that we had the opportunity to pull back the ugly words we just said? Maybe not spend the money on an item we didn't use? Retract our bad behavior? In Bart's Escape, the child doesn't get a mulligan, but he does get to make the wrong committed into a "right." Today be considerate and offer a Mulligan to a few friends and neighbors out there. Some days we all deserve it. Use #NationalMulliganDay to post on social media. AND- get your copy of Bart's Escape out the Gate to teach kids about forgiveness and doing the right thing!
