FLASHBACK: Who is not sleeping in his/her own bed?


No, this is not about any politician running for whatever office this year. In the course of researching something else I found a post I made elsewhere three years ago in another forum. When I wrote this excerpt, it was a peripheral post on a discussion of a political official who worked late at night.

But the situation I mentioned then still happens. I really don’t know what to do, but maybe one of my six or so readers has an idea for an approach.

The more real and pressing late night/early-morning scandal is instead that so many [young children] are being moved around during these hours. Cab drivers, convenience store workers, and other strange people who work where they see the public during these hours can verify that there are many children these days who are not allowed to spend the night in their own beds, but find themselves moved around for the convenience of the adults who are supposed to be responsible for them. [Yes, I know that sometimes children must be moved at odd hours, but certainly not in a number anywhere near what they are.]
