As growth stays sluggish and prices rise, companies are more hard-pressed to keep profits from declining. So they say, 'Sorry, we have to charge more'.

Still, you hope to find something, or maybe you fear finding something, that will completely change your conception of the parent you thought you knew.

In any case, in talking about the past we lie with every breath we draw.
