ReplyOutdoor mini golf would be nice since the other one closed down on 151st and Harlem. A pottery place would be ideal too, my kids loved that one that was on 159th a while back.

ReplyHow horrible that the kids were exposed to that! I agree, the problem is that most parents do not know how to disable their child's device from being able to view the adult themed content. It is really simple. Go to settings, general, restrictions and choose the age range. You can also disable specific apps individually or disable wifi altogether. I think 8 years old is much too young to have unlimited access to the internet, so if you are going to give your young child a gift like that then be sure to make it safe by following those few simple steps. This is the reason my kids' only access to the internet is in my kitchen and under my close watch.

ReplySure, a better choice could have been made in this situation. Ideally we would like to see a more wholesome representative of the community interacting with our children. That being said, the only way the kids would know what the actress is best known for is if someone who knew of her work told them, which I seriously doubt happened. I say move on, get over it and if it really bothers the parents that someone who has behaved immorally read to their child, then they need to create a screening process that would prevent this. That does seem rather "big brother" like and would have to apply to all who enter the school and interacts with the students. In my opinion, she read a book to kids, and by doing so she proved to me that she had good intentions and I applaud her for playing an active positive role in the community she lives in. What she does for a living should not matter.

ReplyThank you, Barbara. It is a compromise that is not so difficult to make when you consider the damage it could cause.

On the article It's Just a Game. Or Is It? Do You Believe in Equal Playing Time? MomTalk

ReplyI think it is great to give all kids a chance to play when they are young and the goal is simply to have fun and learn the rules of the game. When the kids get a bit older, it is only fair to allow the coach to choose who she/he thinks is best to be on the field at any given time. Usually, at least from what I have experienced, coaches will put in the kids who did not get to play yet towards the end of a game to be fair and to make parents happy. What I do not like to see (that I see often) is coaches playing their own children, skilled or not, ALL of the time, with no regard for the sport or fairness. As children get older, they should definitely be placed in the game based on skill.
