Subject: RE: BS: holding on - letting go. A ? for parents
Emphasis in media, story and legend, is always on the bad. Invariably the good outweighs it by an almost unbelievable amount. We just don't hear very much about the kids who go out and come home perfectly safely, only those who don't. The former are in the vast majority. It can tend to warp our perspective.
