Couldnt have said it better myself, bravo. I don't have kids yet, but I do have an identical view on how they will be raised when I do. Treat them like people, not idiots.Originally posted by CMSbob
If this was promotoing or threatening to hang up the 'real' Santa Clause, I could by that arguement, but since it is a fictional Character I don't buy it. If I nailed Fred Flintstone to a cross on my front yard, am I threatening to harm all Cartoon Cavemen? Come on man... All this guy has done is make some people uncomfortable because they don't have the skill to be able to actually parent there own kids, which is a shame as there are going to be a lot more important things to steer their kids around and guide them appropriately through life than this.
Myself, I have no problem tackling difficult issues with my kids, who BTW are 6 and 9 years old. That is my job... If I think something is not right and they ask me about it, I can explain it. I have been hit with a lot tougher stuff than santa on a stick...
