These parents are INCREDIBLY LAZY, and they're attempting to find a way to justify their laziness and make it sound like a deliberate plan.

Call it "unparenting." Too bad their kids will suffer because of it.

A word of caution to Mr. Gairdner: the lawyers for King Features Syndicate have a history of combating unauthorized use of copyrighted Family Circus artwork. Whether or not Gairdner could win a case based on fair use as parody (and while there's reason to believe he could, it's also quite possible he could not, based on the prominence of Keane's original artwork in his parodies), any litigation could get very expensive for him. To get an idea of King Features' propensity for going after small-time parodists, google "Dysfunctional Family Circus," or find its Wikipedia page.

@splam at #1: why would they wait until the 10th?

Though I do not contribute to the web-based exploitation of cats in any other significant way, my avatar on multiple message boards is a photo of my grouchy cat Henry. So unless I stay off those boards on the 9th (which is possible, since I plan to be listening to the Beatles remasters), I will be polluting the web with more (of the same) cat pictures.

"Attaining the status of Eagle Scout is a noteworthy achievement, and is often an early sign that a man is going places with his life."

Huh. Where I grew up, attaining the rank of Eagle Scout was usually a sign that you'd soon be busted for selling weed.

I applaud Mr. Gatward. I would be out there doing the same thing, except it's a futile effort here in the States.

Yes, language evolves. That doesn't mean that there aren't any rules, or that those rules shouldn't be followed.
