Thatababy by Paul Trap for August 27, 2020

Sesame Street, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, and Barney and Friends… how nostalgic (not quite so much with the last one in my recollection)

Thatababy makes an excellent point.

I remember an author that said “I learned everything I needed to know in second grade.”

“Note to teachers: George Orwell wrote ‘1984’ as a warning, not an instruction manual!”

It’s ok to ask for help

You’re not a burden

Murder is ok

Your feelings matter

So true…maybe I remember them somewhat better because I always sat and watched those shows with my kids.

hm……as opposed to LIES, BULLYING and DIVISIVENESS …

Now just where are the the LIES, BULLYING and DIVISIVENESS coming from ?

now just where?

could it be……

we have two schools of thought fighting over who is right. One thinks that individuals learn and grow and become better. The other side thinks it is the social structures that must grow and improve to protect all the individuals. Frankly, you can’t have one without the other.

it should read……. some grown-ups have forgotten what THEY learned as kids. we all need a refresher course…especially those in Washington; the Congress and the White House.

I miss Fred Rogers. I make sure my grandkids see him online. I want a world like the land of make believe, and I’m over sixty.

Oh, is that why many of us so called adults refuse to grow up? I believe with wisdom comes age, not the other way around. You can only be a child once, but you can be childish forever.

Shhh, or somebody will find a reason to ban them!
