A lesson that was somehow overlooked by Captain Kangaroo, whom the TV educrats at NET didn’t want around.

I recently went to a Sesame Street show with my toddler. Thousands of other toddlers are as in love with Elmo as mine is. It’s good to teach them about loved ones going to prison because Elmo likes to diddle underage boys.

The Chapelle Show episode where he uses muppet-like characters to teach kids about STDs is a scream (don’t have the kids around if you watch it).

Overtly, no. But I can see it as subtle training for youngsters of conservative parents who will be summarily arrested and sent off to progressive re-education camps.

For when Daddy gets arrested for having an unregistered firearm, or Mommy gets hauled away for homeschooling, or when both are arrested for attending unauthorized Bible classes.

>I find the “behind the glass” practice between incarcerated mothers and their young children, if the offense is relatively minor and unrelated to child endangerment, a bit medieval and barbaric.<

You'll get no flames from me. I think the child's welfare should be paramount and physical contact, within reason such as you state above, should be allowed.

After all, if prisons can allow conjugal visiting, they should allow a little child to hug and to be hugged by her parent.

Lefties have to destroy childhood innocence and joy with darkness, fear and sadness. Sesame Street has gone through their radical phases before. I bet they are pushing homos on the kids, too.
