Just for the record, in response to the sundry comments that have popped up lately:
- I am not for teen pregnancy.
- I care very much about teens and "the future of this country." I also care very much about babies.
- I never said anything about day care being harmful to children, and I am bewildered that anyone thought I did.
- I never said that I oppose "using kids" on TV.
- Obviously the babies are more or less safe, thanks to the show's precautions, but that doesn't make them any less scared, sad, or emotionally hurt. In other words, the adults know they are safe, but the babies don't!
