Burning Love- Beware the Sun !

I like to take a walk on those still beautiful Rhode Island
beaches -like Narragansett- when the sunshine is more user
friendly, early on a July or August morning or late in the
afternoon.

I am amazed how many people resist this medical advice:
Beware the sun ! They are just like young cigarette smokers
- the pleasure of the moment ,the vanity of looking cool,
outweigh a future cancer nightmare.

But it is no crime to be stupid and uninformed. So I
was a little outraged to read about those " criminal "
parents who let their kids get a nasty sunburn-like leaving
an infant to roast in a parked car ?

As usual the law is as stupid as the negligent parents.
With equal logic, the law could prosecute parents with fat
kids or with illiterate kids who watch too much TV.

If the law fined less than affluent parents - say
$10,000 - for routine stupidity, would it not be taking that
money away from the poor kids too ?

When kids need medical care, it is not a good idea to
fine the parents - to make some corrupt judge fatter. Imagine
some hospital refusing to treat those kids because the parents
cannot pay the bill. And the LAW will not prosecute the
hospital!

Don't tell me this society really cares about kids.
Perhaps it is only worried about the future of cheap labor.

Smart people - who are not rich - do not have kids
nowadays. It seems that their guardian angels have been
on strike for a very long time !

And as for infants roasting in cars, perhaps their

guardian angels can be replaced by a computerized SENSOR-

when the car temperature rises above 80 degrees, it automatically

rolls down the windows or calls 911.
