Can't wait to hear how this comes out in their therapy session 20 years from now.

Moose and I took the kids to an open studio arts event this weekend at a former industrial site that now houses artists' studios. There were the expected hacks and the unexpected true masters available to show their work.

Going into it, I expected there would be nudes. I was all geared up to let the kids experience this. I talked to them ahead of time about how there are many ways to show and view the human form and sexualizing it is only one of them. How if we are only shown that one way through commercials and movies and the internet then we are limited. When we only learn to view bodies this way it leads to objectification.

The only problem was....

No one had this conversation with the artists. Not to say there was NO range at all. Some of them threw a little violence in there as well.

Which left my preemptive parenting looking less like offense and more like, well, offensive.
