A small part of me fears that we have exposed Oliver too early to the makings of good guys and bad guys. A look of fear mixed with surprise often crosses his face as he runs into another room yelling, “Bad guy! Papa, bad guy in dere!” pointing to the living room, or under a bed, or in a closet, or a box, or wherever he expects a bad guy to be lurking.* And, should you care to play along and ask Oliver, “What should we doooo????” he will respond, “Shoot ’em.” Despite how many times I have replied, “No! We should call the police so they can take that bad guy to jail, don’t you think?”<\/p>\n
