Don't Snuff Out Adult Fun
RECEIVED Sun., March 24, 2013
Dear Editor,
I live in North Austin in the Wooten Park neighborhood near Burnet Road and Anderson Lane, and I can assure you that there's no shortage of children no matter where you go, particularly unsupervised ones playing in the street near apartment complexes [“Neighborhood Watch,” News, March 22]. So, what earthly good is that for sustainability? The real problem that exists for North Austin is that there are too many of these diaper sniffers meddling into adults' affairs, ostensibly "for the children,” who will have no future if this is people's idea of diversity. It's bad enough that these professional yuppie parents ruin all spontaneity for their children, but now they want to ruin it for adults trying to have fun as well. Hell, you can't even have a beer at Genuine Joe Coffeehouse because it's too close to a day care center! And now these dork daddies and moronic mommies want to prevent cool digs like Little Woodrow's from opening up in North Austin?! Your children don't need protection from adults who like to party, drink, and have fun … they need protection from overbearing and overprotective parents like yourselves who like to eradicate what makes life worth living in the first place!
