Thread: I'm in trouble, methinks...

Many thanks to ChrisL and Hoglahoo for making this useless thread possible.

I came downstairs to see my daughter picking some books out and saying "DA" (hey she's 14 months old tomorrow) which means "Father, dearest father, would you take me upon your knee and read to me, please?"

Then I saw what she was picking.......

At least it is not Atlas Shrug or The Prince by Machiavelli.

She won't be able to reach Atlas Shrugged for another two shelves yet.
Don't own a copy of The Prince.

You could always re-arrange the bookshelf. "You can get paranoid about your government when you're tall enough!"

I doubt it...but I I have not had enough coffee yet to generate a witty, well thought out reply, so I'm going to pretend I didn't see it until later.

You know, seeing the other book she picked out, I'm wondering what she's going to be reading when she's 18...

no I'm totally serious. I like Ayn Rand; if I had kids that were old enough, I'd read her to them.

When she is old enough to understand them, I hope that she is exposed to (and enjoys said exposure) as many philosophies as possible. Objectivism is absolutely included.
