No one ever died from sleeping in an unmade bed. I have known mothers who remake the bed after their children do it because there is wrinkle in the spread or the blanket is on crooked. This is sick.

About This Quote

It is a common belief that no one ever dies from sleeping in an unmade bed. People who have been badly treated by others sometimes take their anger out on the innocent sleepers in their lives. It is a form of revenge. I have seen many examples of people who get up from their beds, get angry and start to remake their beds after they get through with the person who has been mistreating them. It is sick and it is cruel to treat someone else this way.
