Subject: RE: BS: holding on - letting go. A ? for parents
Beats me. I do not want my grandson out of my sight unless I absolutely trust who he might be with. I just found out it is not deemed safe to use your child(apostrophe)s name in public places lest some stranger lure them away. Which made me wonder what kind of fucked up society we live in when I have to address my grandson by kiddo, squirt, heya etc. My daughters both confirmed this with me. They have also told me there is no way they will allow their sons to wander as much as they did when youngsters. To be fair they do not live in the same types of communities they did when growing up, but it is still a measure of our times, imo.
