"Children Should Be Seen And Not Heard"............

Children should not speak in the presence of adults. This saying may be a bit antiquated in this day and age!

It's a figurative way of saying that it's better to turn things over to a power greater than yourself and trust that things will work out (somehow).

Mostly true, I believe.

Me and my sister would get the "LOOK" if we misbehaved, that's all it took!
