For those who have kids...you can appreciate this!

My little boy, who is 5, has become a Star Wars freak. Don't know how it happened or anything. I had a few figures, but they were at my parents house (where he found them) or never watched the movies on a consistent basis (maybe turn on for a second on Spike if they were on).

But we've never pushed anything for them to like (we hate it when those push (say) Winnie the Pooh all over their kids). We wanted them to develop their own likes/dislikes. So Star Wars has hit his fancy big time.

He has been going to zoo camp the last couple of weeks and we have a splash park at our zoo on Monday. Well of course, some Muslim (I'm assuming she was since she was covered head to toe in a black robe) woman comes in with her kids. I immediately just went "Aw shit" because I knew exactly what would be going thru his mind when he saw her. And yes, you guessed it, she sat right next to our stuff!

I was watching our 2 year old when I saw him going over to get his towel and start to "inquire". And yes, my intuition was correct and I knew exactly what he was asking.

I hurried over and was saying, "Come on Aiden, over here". He was telling me, "Daddy, she's in Star Wars...blah blah".

Come to find out, and thanks to Rahl for helping me, this is who he was talking about (He confirmed it when I showed him a picture)

Yeah, kids are famously un-PC. I'm trying to think of a good example of my son not being so tactful, either. He does tend not to be humble, as when someone praises him for something, instead of saying, "Gee, thanks" or something like that, he'll say, "Yeah, I know! I am pretty good!"
