ok. this is my reply to eve's topic about fairy tales cause the computer won't let me post it. i tried 4 times. server hangup.
that's what i'm saying. it's good for kids that fairy tales are frightening. that's how they learn to deal with their difficult emotions like fear and anger in a safe way. if you censor the grimm fairy tales and things like that you stop kids learning how to deal with scary feelings which i think is bad. my friend corey reads her kid grimm stories and he's scared but he loves them. please don't deprive your kids of that. *jenny*
Mustang Sally said:Nursery rhymes I can deal with. But fairy tales! I have a book of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales - truly frightening and sadistic stuff in there. I can't understand how they're suitable for children. More nightmares in there than any movie I've ever seen.
