Giving too much information too soon

My oldest son and his wife have a 16-month old daughter, Emme. They recently signed up for a college credit course at a local community college (in Washington state). The little kids are all in one room while the adults are in another getting some sort of parenting education.

My daughter-in-law Jan was not thrilled with the adult supervision in the kids' room so she and several other mothers (and an occasional father) stayed with the tots.

I'm not expressing my personal opinion about this particular topic, but it was clear how Jan felt. She recently told me about a breast-feeding mother who quite frequently fed her baby during the one-hour session. "I don't know her. I don't even know her name. But I saw her boobs at least five times during one hour!"

So I thought about networking and how you learn in the Certified Networker course how to build relationship first before interacting with others in a certain way.

So the take-home lesson for me here was - get to know someone; develop a relationship with them first; and then you can show them your boobs all you want!

So what's your favorite 'too much info too soon' story?
