Other People’s Children
I first read Other People's Children in the magazine, before searching for the version here online. It is nice to see a generally decent back-and-forth in the comment-section. My contribution is this: Perhaps, Kevin, it is too much fantasy script-writing (with imaginary, implausible consequences) which causes you to believe that you actually will be able to punch, yell and letter-write your way to enthroning yourself as overlord of social-environments. Nevertheless, Kevin, as an aged playwright, it will be quite limited, your ability to rule--with an iron fist--those social environments with which you disagree. Kevin, I have five children; mine are all well-behaved, so I would never be a target of yours for the reasons stated in your article. However, I have decades of experience in defense-based martial-arts; and just so you understand more of the real world: if someone like me sees someone like you escalating words--however bad--into blows then we incapacitate you, and you wait to be arrested for assault. So save your blind and petty rage for the stage. The world is not an 80's movie, and children are not well-served to see violence, not even if it is supposedly on their behalf. I, too, am intolerant of insensitive parents; however, you Kevin--the violent enemy of my enemy--are not my friend either.— May 25, 2011 8:22 a.m.
