naughty, naughty...
Now you both know we should not be teaching our children about such things.
Everyone knows childhood is supposed to be perfectly safe with no bumps, bruises, skinned knees or any scrapes or scratches.
Good grief - how in heaven's name did any of us grow up to become parents? We played ball in the street, we rollerskated in the street, we biked in the streets - all without helmets and kneepads and elbow pads - we were KIDS.
Why does it appear to me that the idea od being a KID no longer exists?
