TOWNS CANCELING EASTER EGG HUNTS BECAUSE OF PARENTS

More and more towns are canceling their annual Easter Egg hunts due to helicopter parents. For example, in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, a volunteer fire company canceled the egg hunt. Deputy Chief Chuck Hipple said there has been a recurring problem of some parents running onto the field to “help” their kid, despite having been told not to, and it poses a danger to children. He said it’s not the majority of people but a few people “just can’t seem to let the kids have fun.”
* You’ve got those nice fire hoses, chief. Use ’em.
* Careful, some of these parents have sharpened their fighting skills at Little League games.
* Can we still get little blue and pink baby chicks?
* Disappointed children will be encouraged to look for eggs in their refrigerator.
* This is surprising. I thought public Easter Egg hunts were already outlawed for religious reasons.
* After all, Easter eggs represent one specific religion. How or why? I have no idea.
* And that goes for the Easter Bunny too.
* Easter’s getting scrambled.
* Maybe this is for the best. You certainly don’t want these little snowflakes getting caught in the helicopter blades.
