Never, Never, Neverland

"Come here President!! You need to be assassinated!!"

This is what I hear out of AJ's mouth as I'm floating around on my raft in the pool. The series of large splashes that follow this statement inform me that CJ (the appointed President) has swam away from the assassin (AJ).

When I was younger my cousin and I played shark and mermaid & pirate and princess. President and assassin were two words that probably never crossed our minds. Today I worry about the media and what it is teaching and showing. What worries me most is that in my experience, children learn by example.
