Attention World, I have an announcement to make:
MY KID CAN NOW READ.
He reads all the time. He reads everything out loud, and with great gusto.
So if you wouldn’t mind, please put away all of your F-bomb t-shirts and hateful bumper stickers.
And while we’re at it, I’m going to need all of you store owners to move those trashy magazines away from the check out counters.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sigh. Wishful thinking.
My little man is starting to read now and I think about the same things you are too! Too bad we can’t put blinders on their eyes to the not nice stuff!
Ob my gosh, I feel this way too – but what’s been bugging me is that the guide on our cable tv has really really inappropriate channels/show names (like really bad) – obviously we don’t subscribe to those channels but to see the names of the programs while scrolling – I cringe!!
Congratulations! That’s a big step
