Is common sense making a comeback?

Hey All,

Thought would share. Was at my youngest's Christmas Carol do for his kindy. The local pastor's wife runs the kindy so was held at the church near us.

Before things got underway...she asked if anyone had objections to having their children photographed. No one put up their hand. She then said....and I love this.....if you do....please find your way to the back of the room and out the door

. To which the room burst out in laughter and applause.

With all the PC rubbish that abounds these days....was great to see some common sense coming back into the fray. Plus there were real Christmas carols...was great to hear.

Here is my youngin saying G'day to Santa.....old enough now to have an idea

Regards

Stevo

That is sweet mate, the way it should be- kids don't need to be blighted in the best times of their lives by adult bull****.
happy christmas to you and yours

What where the 'real Christmas carols' Steve?

The look on your young fella's face almost says 'Honest I've been good - its just this guy holding me that's the issue'!

Sadly No. One swallow doesn't make a summer.

Yeah, but one can trick you into marriage.

"Common" sense I believe is an oxymoron. It isn't. However some people never lost it (sense), thank goodness.

Reminds me of this post I put up some time ago.

Real as in good ol day carols...that mentioned Jesus.......not the Bilby or Kangaroo or whatever.......but old fashioned carols. As for Jackjack....he was all 'Santa Santa" until we got close up...but a free candy cane got him over the line.

Geez Mark...glass half full kinda guy hey

. Baby steps.....all about baby steps

.

How if I can only find a way to dismantle the reindeer that every time the young fella pushes a button it emits the "Benny Hill" tune and I almost want to get up and pretend to chase at scantilly clad bird around the place in fast motion

common sense......i take photos at all my sons sporting events

i have been pulled up twice by officals indicating that i was not allowed to take pics, i thank them for the heads up and continue taking pics.

i don't normally go against rules but as my parents have a heap of photos of me playing sport as an young fella i am certainly not going to miss the opportunity for my boys.
