He was just a skinny dad...

never knew no good from bad.

But he shunned Life except inside the nursery...

* What if they just left the Queen songs along, even on the "Intro To" compilations for kids, and instead parents stepped up to determine what their children were ready to listen to?  (Hint:  a lot of musical lyrics go over their heads; they don't get adults themes, and often enjoy the melody and tunes.)  How hard is it today, for non-single parents, to control what their kids listen to?  We used to call that Parental Discipline (meaning if you raise them up right, and share your values, they won't "sneak' listen either, if they have the opportunigy...)

I wish those who have kids would 1) think about their responsibilites before conceiving, if possible; 2) take control of their own children and devote the time to raising them, instead of relying on society to do that work.  Every family does not share the same values, and that's cool.  Give them a childhood, or don't, but don't try to make the World a safe space because you apparently can't carve that out for your kids...
