Do you have a child???? From my experience, you don't manipulate a child to do something he doesn't want to do. He might go along for the ride or the protest, but to take an active stand comes from inside the child. The child may take a position that looks wholly devised by the parent, or it might run wholly counter to the parent. Right or wrong, the child, such as this 10-year old is totally capable of reasoning based on the facts/feelings at hand and coming to his own conclusion. That being said, I do believe that a child should be protected from danger, including being arrested for whatever reason. A child should not have to worry about things like the death of Terri Schiavo. That will all come soon enough. The question is does anyone care enough as an adult to get the law changed in Florida and elsewhere to prevent this from happening again.
