Or are we just out of touch with the kids of today?]]>http://sandbox.plime.com/l/126635/1/rss2_0.rss#q9http://sandbox.plime.com/l/126635/1/rss2_0.rss#q9sandbox <![CDATA[maven @ 7/4/2009 10:39:55 AM]]>« greenfourth : Really?

I don't recall EVER hearing of any little kids who tried to hang in the air after running off a cliff like Wiley Coyote did, but there've been several kids who DIED emulating Dora the Explorer or Sponge Bob.

The daughter of a friend was drawing on a calendar, putting in fire works for the 4th of July, a jack-o-lantern for Halloween, etc. For Thanksgiving, she drew a turkey. With four legs. And didn't think it was odd.

Watching cartoons teaches kids that the TV lies. I think that is a good lesson to learn early!

And not all lies are bad - fantasy is fun and funny, and ok!]]>http://sandbox.plime.com/l/126635/1/rss2_0.rss#q2http://sandbox.plime.com/l/126635/1/rss2_0.rss#q2sandbox
