Said Elsie:

"Mom, I'm kind of scared. Do you remember when I was three and you wanted to brush my hair? And I didn't want you to. And you said if I didn't brush my hair, then you would send me to North Carolina where kids have no mommies and daddies, and they only get to eat rice and fish."

....um....

I did tell her that if she didn't let me brush her hair she would look like an orphan. And then explained that an orphan was someone without a mommy and daddy.

Someone has their memories mixed up. And hopefully that someone is Elsie.
