Perhaps it's a good thing we didn't have a gun anywhere around...

Can I ask where you were raised?
Those who were usually protected some at home usually could tough it through outside harassment better than those who weren't. Usually it's those who had protection at home who like to throw the word "coddled" around.

I do get sick of having to protect kids from every little thing and the kumbaya atmosphere of a lot of school stuff. But I get just as tired of people who had good family support acting stronger than those who didn't have it. They are often pretty clueless.
