Child's drawing, loaded pistols and questions


Lynn showed me a Facebook item that included this drawing done in school by an elementary student.  Given the recent shooting of his teacher by a 6yr old boy using a loaded pistol, given far too many mass shootings in the US, given history of hangings and lynchings, the teacher was somewhat alarmed.  She called the parents in and they all had a meeting.  "What is this drawing?"  "It is our family's recent adventure scuba diving in the Bahamas."


Yes, weird and unexpected things happen.  Yes, some of them are very unpleasant but it is smart to be somewhat calm about them and try to understand.
