Momma's, Don't Let Your Boys Grow Up to Be Girls

When I was a kid, I liked to pretend I was a superhero. I would tie a towel around my neck and I'd make believe I was Superman or Batman. However, as much as I would have loved to see if I could fly by jumping off the top of our car I knew my mom wouldn't let me try any of that foolishness. Why? Well, because she loved me and wanted to protect me. She made sure she taught me about what was real and what was make believe.

Too bad the parents mentioned in this Fox News story didn't feel the same way.

A west Omaha couple says their 8-year-old son has asked for years to wear dresses and change his name, so they're enrolling him in a new school where he can live openly as a girl.

The parents say their middle child is transgender, and he's asked to be called girl since age 4.

"One night she said, 'Every night when I go to bed, I pray my inside will match my outside. But it never happens,"' the mother said, recalling a conversation with her child.

Notice, this isn't on the Left Coast. It's right in the middle of America. That's right, folks. The abdication of reason and conscience for the tyranny of political correctedness (is that a word?) is upon us. Instead of parents raising their children and teaching them the difference between right and wrong, they let the child tell them what's right and wrong. Topsy Turvey. Stop this train 'cause I wanna get off.

And from the picture on your profile, it appears that you didn't get the "super hero" thing completely out of your system. That's OK, the more I read what you write, the more I think it fits.

Thanks for the visit. Actually I'm still something of a comic book geek. Haa
