IF IT FEELS GOOD IT IS GOOD


I never understood parents who drag their kids to art museums. Natural History museums are one thing - show a kid a fossil, a dead fish or a dinosaur skeleton and they'll forget about the Mike and Ikes you stashed in your pocket just in case you had to quiet them down. But forcing a child to suffer through a room of crucifixions or worse, mural-size canvases with three splotches of paint mixed with gravel, is a form of abuse they could do without.

It always seems to be the gluten-free lactose intolerant crowd that tow their offspring to these cathedrals of high culture. Like baby carrots and almond milk, looking at art is supposed to be good for you.

If these parents were so concerned about what was good for their kids they would have them vaccinated instead of sending them to chicken pox parties.

Kids like things that move like cars, and dogs and television programs.

 Life is miserable enough. If they're going stare at the wall and crane their necks at least they should be having fun.
