Am I getting conservative?


Rapper M.I.A had her baby and posted this on her myspace:


"HAPPY VALENTINES!

MY BABY WAS BORN WEDNESDAY , HE IS HEALTHY , FINE , BEAUTIFUL AND THE MOST AMZING THING EVER ON THIS PLANET, OF COURSE IM HIS MUM!!!

ME AND BABY ARE PUTTING OUR TOUR DATES FOR 2010 TOGETHER
AND MAKING MIX TAPES
AND FIGURING OUT A WAY TO BREAK OUT OF THE HOSPITAL !

HOPEFULLY THE WORLD IS BEEN TICKING ALONG AND I AINT MISSED MUCH!

C U SOON ,

AND MY BABY BOY SAYZ HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "



I just wonder about what that must be like. I think its adorable that she says me and baby are making mixtapes putting together tour dates.

but I wonder what's ultimately going to happen to that kid. Is it unethical to have a kid and be a jet setting rock star? What's the kid's gauge of stability going to be?

His emotional development is going to be affected. Maybe if he's loved enough and taught that you should be kind to people, that'll be fine and whatever maladaptive social behaviors he has will just be accepted. Its not like rudeness and bad taste are limited to rock stars.

A person's sense of self and emotional well being is developed over time and with experience. The brain will act to protect a person from painful events. Leaving your brain to make sense of an experience without having had the emotional cognizance to fully allow your self to make peace with it, sets a tragic precedent onto a young person.

I'm just wondering what kind of drug addict or power crazed megalomaniacs or nymphos these kids are going to turn out to be. But then again, M.I.A isn't touring till 2010 and it seems like she's retreating and will just be taking care of the baby for now. The majority of the world's crazy people came from regular households anyway right?


I'm pretty sure that bad parents are responsible for all the world's problems. Even the greedy bastards on wall street - I blame their moms and dads.
