Trying to be Diplomatic

Okay, now we're going to make a compliment sandwich, where I tell you something I like about you, and then I tell you something you can work on, and then I tell you something else I like about you! Here we go.

Compliment: I think your Russian babies are cute!
Thing you can work on: CONTROL THEM OR LOSE THEM. Screaming "be quiet! Be QUIET!" in general does not count as control.
Compliment: You bring a human and understandable face to modern mothering: "sometimes I wish they would never speak again until they turn 25." I cheer. Inwardly.
