Not normal everyday citizens. So if they are not showing your child enough than the parent needs to complain to the news channels. The more the parents complain the more news their child gets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21905243.post-4225075976752636582009-05-26T20:43:29.603-07:002009-05-26T20:43:29.603-07:00There's a term for something very similar to your ...There's a term for something very similar to your observations.

Faded, childish fake flowers and a resin angel mark the place, but try to take it down, even if it's on private property, and back up it goes.
