(Preview)
It wouldn't be accurate to say Mr. Huck is hard to buy for, as he has lots of interests and is always happy with books and things he collects or kind-of-collects. The problem is that if something appeals to him he tends to just buy it for himself, so I have to do a bit of hunting and thinking to get him somet...

Talking to kids about horrors

In general I think it's best to be open with kids about scary things in the world, though for a long time I've tried to keep my young kids from watching t.v. news, where generally it's not so much about information as sensation and hence of course ratings. Small stayed home sick from school yesterday wit...
