Is this because we have 100 times more conversations with ourselves in our heads than we do with others?

I'm having a big discussion about Disney and fairy tales and innocence on the other forum I frequent.

Exactly. I pointed out that many scenes in certain Disney movies aren't remotely sheltering. One of my friends then pointed out that there's so much death and violence in old fairy tales because such things were common place.

Death and violence have always been a major theme since the beginning of storytelling.

Some days I wonder if my books are too dark for children. Edge of Eternity is certainly pushing it as far as I can go. The next few books will hopefully be more light-hearted since there aren't any planetary disasters in them.

I personally don't like stating my opinion on these things, but... I personally feel that kids should be exposed to such content at an early age. I'm not fond with the idea of babying children in the sense that things like violence in stories needing to be censored and so on. Maybe I'm just thinking only of my past. The things I saw when I was young. I don't know. It's just my thought on the matter.

Has anyone tried using fake laughter so that you don't upset people and that people are still laughing at the joke the other person is saying?

I don't know.
I heard it on the radio.
They were trying to get people to list 10 absolute truths about themselves and no one could do it.

I started learning Swedish and German together and threw in a little French to keep it confusing. It's cool to see how many words different languages have in common.
