Instantly upon the arrival of my tiny charge into this world my ability to watch television, movies, court cases, or even read new stories about child abuse dissolved. I literterally find myself physically ill when faced with a story or situation that involves children being hurt in any way. I recently read a CNN headline and launched into a panic attack because of the 10-word title of the peice (I did not even read the story)….so it got me thinking – how disguisting is it that up until the point I actually gave birth to my child that these things did not bother me. What kind of world are we building for our children when media of all kinds if flooded with violence laced images and messaging.

Bleck! Now I am going to have to spend counteless hours humming Bob Marley and thinking about David Cross jokes to get that horrorible headline out of my head. Thanks CNN…thanks alot.
