Is it okay for parents to scare their children straight?
P&C review Crowhill’s Kentucky Common, then discuss Wrinkles the Clown.
Parents have been heard to say, “We don’t spank, we use the discipline clown.”
E.g., “You’d better be good, or I’ll call Wrinkles.”
“Hello, Wrinkles,” [child wailing in the background], “I have some very bad children here.”
The story of Wrinkles is very interesting, and more complicated than you might think. What should we think of a clown designed to scare children?
