As a teacher, I am no longer allowed to direct children to watch the news on TV. The parents say that it is too violent.

Seems all the violent acts are on the front pages, whether it be a horrendous murder, rape, domestic abuse, hate crime, school shooting,
or car crash down to some lesser nonsense that some "celebrity" is doing.

We can discuss the war in general terms leaving out the high body count
and the "true" politics of the situation.
Definitely no personal opinions surrounding the war or even the primary elections.

So my "current events" of the day usually relates to the weather, Ground Hog's Day, Changing clocks,
presidents' birthdays, latest speeding laws, and the BIGGIE??? American Idol.

***and here is the kicker****
These same parents take these same kids to see "R" rated movies
and let them play some horrid video games.

Seems we cannot win.

People will do what they wish.
Just try not to foist these articles on us in a surreptitious manner.

So, ladies, please label your threads and warn us so we know whether or not to read them.

Does my post make any sense at all?
