My politically incorrect blog post

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Home Team

Sweet Sarah did a blog post yesterday about hugging. In my comments I warned her not to let her kids try that in school because they could be sent home for sexual harassment. Unfortunately, in this world of political correctness, hugging can be a bad thing and there are too many stories in the newspapers of political correctness run amok. Shortly after I left a hug on her post (seemed safe enough) I found this video. I wanted to share it in the worst way but worried how it may be taken. But then I remembered who I am... I don't really care about any political correctness crap.

And so here it is ...Psalm 23 in the words of a child. Surely...you will love it. ((((((((((((hugs))))))))))

Linda, that was awesome!!!

Unfortunately what you wrote is all to true.  I have heard reports of more than one child being suspended from school because they hugged a friend.  Sometimes rules just go too far.

Linda, what a fun post. After the first time we read my Grandadughter Lily a book about the baby Jesus, she asked a little later to read about Baby Cheesits again!  Must be Shirley's brother :>)

Politically correct women never make a difference!!!!!!

I've been off Active Rain for a couple days.  It would appear that you all surely agree that she is a little angel! Thanks for the nice comments!

That little gilr looks exactly like the young boy down the street from us.  If she had shorter hair I would say it is the same child. Gotta send this one to my friend!

I can't believe that I have missed that over the past two weeks.  Too cute! You know, when I was comin' up hugs were considered healthy.  I believe we were advised to get 5 hugs everyday.

I've heard that elementary school hugging goes into a child's record and follows them as as a "sexual harassment" incident right through high school. A permanent mark on a child's record!

Hi Linda,
Very sweet!  Thanks for sharing.  Policitically correct?  So far out there, it makes no sense anymore.

I'm really glad you are still enjoying this video.  I watched it again today.  Surely, she is still the sweetest thing.
