    Couldn't disagree more.

      I think it was pretty disturbing and I'm glad they took it down but I also think she was out of line going to the media. Kind of a cowardly way of doing it. She could have asked them first or failing that, started a petition or something.

          I really don't get people who go all out for Halloween. Did they think it's fun to scare kids? I see to each his own, but I don't enjoy gore, I'd never voluntarily watch a scary movie, I have similarly sensitive kids, and if I couldn't walk past our school without giving them nightmares ... Maybe I'd be "one of those moms." I'm not going to judge her too harshly.

                So, just to add an extra twist to this theme. This just happened in Ohio as well.

                  Soooo, can I be just an eensy bit annoyed that the next door neighbor decorated their front door exactly the same as ours about a week after our decorations went up? I'm trying to be a grown up and assume that they just didn't notice but it's weird, right?

                    I found those decorations pretty graphic. I wouldn't want to look at that every day, but people should be able to decorate however they want.
