Top Tracks of 2009
figure out a way to get Aha Shake Heartbreak on your turntable, CD player, laptop, or sonos (however you listen to music)
give it two or three listens.
i think you'll come around.

Enjoy yours, we'll do the same.
First of all, kids today, no matter where you live, are exposed to all sorts of things at a very young age. Attempting to put the lid down upon what they can see and hear, will only make them more likely to seek these things out, as they think they are “cool”, because of the taboo, and will rebel against their parents for forbidding them. On the other hand, a parent who teaches by example, and who is involved in their child’s life (explaining, working with, and being a regular, full time, although working parent), can expect, for the most part, a kid who knows the difference between what one hears and sees on TV, YT, at a concert, or anywhere else, and the real world they are expected to be a part of.
Please don’t underestimate our kids. They are smarter than you think, and I would just bet that Fred’s kids are all going to turn out just fine!
i believe that being part of their discovery of stuff like drinking, drugs, etc is the best way to help them figure out how to do it responsibly
