Hurting people is NOT good!!!! and teach them that guns/rifles can get you food. You know what I mean. (Here in my area, we hunt for food in the fall.)<br><br>I think I could bring up quite a few more, but I'll wait to read the rest of your list.<br><br>Hugs, Yvettemtnchildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17457636624663214696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-51878948161347683272009-02-18T17:45:52.824-08:002009-02-18T17:45:52.824-08:00You so rock.You so rock.d.a.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10701833441665984965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-78171814176005840562009-02-18T21:18:30.317-08:002009-02-18T21:18:30.317-08:00you make a great point.there are many great, beaut...you make a great point.there are many great, beautiful and useful things which can be very dangerous as well, so children really need to get to try them. how else are they to learn otherwise.<br><br>i still can't light a match or start a fire in any way.or drive a car. so stupid and inconvenient. but i don't think it's only fear that stops me, but respect as well. so i think it's best to teach children respect without fear.<br><br>but do you think there things in life everyone would be wise to be afraid of? like drugs, for one. or is fear inappropriate even here?*noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534240.post-63705845563631738972009-02-18T21:57:21.667-08:002009-02-18T21:57:21.667-08:00I like! :POf course, I learned to love fire in the...I like! :P<br><br>Of course, I learned to love fire in the same place!

They also learned how to hunt for crayfish at night in the river with only their hands and a flashlight! They loved that too.Mama Sparkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03124372688717255658noreply@blogger.com
