Around the second grade, my son came home from school with several parodies of the "Barney" the Dinosaur song. He was horrified. The youngsters, who had previously loved Barney, discovered that it was fashionable to hate Barney, and invented many lyrics about his demise. I'm sure you've heard some of these..."I hate you, you hate me, let's hang Barney from a tree..." Typical gruesome childhood inventions.
