but I *do* talk to the baggers... I talk to damn near everybody... just not when my kids are involved... that mother's instinct takes over, and I see everything in the world as evil where they're concerned... I know it's something I'll have to get over eventually, I'm ultra-over-protective, and I realize that this could cripple them over time, but like I said before, these are scary times. You never know who is going to have the urge to hurt someone else... it's not about people being different, it's what the world is like these days. There is a serious lack of ethical behaviour in humans... there are those who *get it* and they wouldn't hurt anyone, but there's lots more who are only out for themselves, and if they thought they could get away with it, would cause all the havoc they could, just for something to do. Maybe a pessimistic view overall, but I tend to give everyone the same chance at friendship... just not when it comes to my kids. Cause they aren't old enough to know how to take care of strange situations, and odd people. They aren't big enough to defend themselves if they need to. I agree, it's a sad world to grow up in. I wish it was more like the times I grew up in, although things were getting bad even then, just not as pervasive as it is now...
