Oh! I read this article I want you to read! (I was reading article #1 and it was talking about the importance of nature.) It was in "Working Mother" and this chick writes an article about how kids really DON'T need nature and we're all being guilted into camping by backwards nut-jobs. It's hilarious! I'm like, you're really ANTI-nature??? LOL!!
