Good idea but it won't work .
She's going to Mexico after India . Told her about the the dozen drug war beheadings, headless bodies just laying in the street . Didn't change her mind in the slightest , she just asked what part of Mexico . If you ask me, I think she's a bit of a thrill seeker . But still your idea is valid , she's stubborn , maybe I can think of a better adventure . She's refused money from us before though . ( my wife has tried to bribe her once before - I said your wasting you're time , I ended up being right ) . She will simply do it because thats what she wants to do .
If something does go wrong I'll get the press involved . If that doesn't work I still have one more trick up my sleeve .
vdk , I agree with you . But my faith in her is not misplaced .
You're thinking I have a choice in this matter . I don't . I'm certain the only thing that would change her mind for awhile is if she happenned to break a leg or get very sick before going . But that would just postpone it not change her mind . Both her mother and I have been working on her for 3 weeks now . It just makes her more determined to go . She's too much like her mother in this regard .
ADDED
I just phoned my wife and asked her if she has tried to bribe her . She says she doesn't mind that she goes now . Funny , coming from her . Case closed then , fine with her , its fine with me . thank you for your imput . much appreciated . It was bothering me some . not anymore . My wife can still surprise me after all these years .
