Overexposure

Setting limits --
a wonderful idea
  for small children

Limit their exposure to languages
  One language is confusing enough

Limit their exposure to computers
  They'll turn into anti-social introverts

Limit their exposure to the natural world
  So much dirt and disease out there now

Limit their exposure to family finances
  They'll have time for that later in life

Limit their exposure to fun and frivolity
  Life is so serious these days

Limit their exposure to people different from them
  They need to build a solid foundation first

And do not do what the Romans once did
Do not toss them on the side of a mountain
to see if they survive ~
  Limit their exposure to sides of mountains...
