Clark Hicks is a civil litigation attorney and Hattiesburg resident. Write him at clark@hicksattorneys.com.
Mom tried hard to protect her sons. Young boys can eat you out of house and home. Add a father who had a hankering for sweets and snacks and that is a recipe for disaster and a whopping grocery bill. My dad insisted that my mom buy crackers, cookies, cakes, donuts, chips, and every kind of snack food on the grocery shelf. He nibbled, chewed, and crunched his way through each workday and on weekends, munched right in front of his growing, ravenous sons.
