I can understand you very well, even having no own children, but experiencing how our nieces and nephews are growing up. A German friend told me about those advertisements, you mentioned in your comment. The "dilemma", which you subscribed in your comment's last paragraph seems to be happened in many Western countries. So sad! Anyway, I got other experiences with my nieces and nephews last Christmas. Thanks God! Be save and well too, Marcelina... . Hi Marcelina, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU and thanks for stopping by.

You have touched a very important topic, Klaus! As a grandparent to four very young children, I do worry about their future. What makes me sad is to see advertisements using the children to disrespect their parents. These commercials make the parents look so ignorant, uninformed or just plain clueless. And we wonder how these children behave unruly and obnoxious to the authorities?? I guess this is the trend now and thought to be progressive by the so-called intellectuals. The unfortunate thing is this is rampant and whether we like to admit this or not, we are unconsciouly raising rebels. One of my heroes, Rush Limbaugh, (sorry folks :)) before Christmas, was describing the "dilemma" of some parents go through who were unable to tell the truth to their kids their lack of money to buy presents as they used to. I would never be able to understand this one. Cheers! Be well, be happy and be safe! Marcelina Happy New Year to you and Rose, and the rest of the 21 members of the family!

Forster's "A Room With A View": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xDfJekKLk8&feature=PlayList&p=0F00A16CEEFFF1E8&index=0 Enjoy. Hi Klaus.
