Why don't you take a piece of paper, glue it over the gun and draw something else instead.Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742462123870647805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-54759431744728343532011-11-27T18:37:27.272-05:002011-11-27T18:37:27.272-05:00My friend's mom has a funny story about how sh...My friend's mom has a funny story about how she made sure her son NEVER saw guns. No gun shows, no gun toys, etc. But somehow, when he was about 2, he started making guns (with his finger or other toys) and "shooting" everything, complete with sound effects. Maybe that's a boy thing, I don't know! I agree with everyone else that it probably doesn't belong in a baby's book and I think your "paranoia" is just being a good parent.tarynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-66950141598948523902011-11-26T01:59:49.413-05:002011-11-26T01:59:49.413-05:00Well, Alice doesn't know that guns kill people...Well, Alice doesn't know that guns kill people or guns are bad. There are thousands of things out of place in all children books. I don't like at all some "classic stories" as Snow White, Pinnocchio, Little Riding Hood, Cinderella, etc. I think this classic literature contents more than a baby or little kid can understand. I also don't like a book Emma's like the most because talks about a lazy sun that only wants tobsleep and does not want to shine, he has a little star that feeds him in his mounth, dresses him up, make his bed, combs his hair, etc. It doesn't sound creepy or whatever, illustrations are even very nice, but it reflects the way italian society treats little ones, some guys here take their kids on strollers 'till 6 years old to avoid them get tired!!!!. So, I just can't stand this lazy sun book.190.archhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12618695004916043677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-16364374836312895692011-11-25T18:18:35.730-05:002011-11-25T18:18:35.730-05:00Hmm, in a small babie's book, kinda odd.

However, Simon keeps banging on about getting Bear some toy soldiers, and I'm like why? Why do boys have to play war with violent toys? He reminded me boys have been playing with bows and arrows, guns, toy soliders etc for decades, and the vast majority are not gun wielding, war mongering psychos. I conceed he has a point... but I still don't like it.Hoola Tallulahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08329088395765574328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6788067537879713934.post-27822538977007792232011-11-25T11:27:17.104-05:002011-11-25T11:27:17.104-05:00I think we defnitely are getting more and more par...I think we defnitely are getting more and more paranoid but then it's no wonder when you see the media. Truth is though, paranoid or not, I don't reckon a gun should be in a baby's book. How does a gun convey anything educational? So no, I don't think you're being paranoid - just normal.The Franglaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00596402165309229771noreply@blogger.com
