they say that you get more bees with honey.
Meaning that setting out the honey gets you stung? (see above)
Actually, McJ, don't go telling everybody , but you have to steal the honey off the bees in the first place, so if they think it's "Be Kind to Bees Week" more fool them.

Seriously, though I agree with the consensus in this thread, that kindness is strength, in moderation; weakness (or even amounting to unkindness) in excess (that drunken ,over-tolerant mother being a case in point. but it's not always that clear-cut, of course).
