It's that time of year again. My Facebook page is full of terrified kids sitting on a 6 ft. rabbit's lap. I can say happily, I grew up free from that insanity. I first noticed it when my kids were little, my oldest son at around age 5 commented, as we walked quickly past the freakish furball with a screaming baby on it's lap, "Let's get out of here Mommy" !!
Don't get me wrong, I love real bunny rabbits. I even loved Jimmy Stewart's giant invisible one in the classic old movie "Harvey" no problem. It's creepy enough sitting on Santa's lap, but the Easter Bunny, WHY?? I guess scaring children is hilarious family fun !. The pics posted usually have comments from parents such as, "LOL, she cried the whole time" or "He ran away screaming as soon as he got off of it's lap, Hahaha".
Years from now I suspect a lot of these kids will be" hopping down the bunny trail" to a therapist's office, I'll be in the waiting room next to them, I really need to discuss my Santa issues.
I think we all have Santa issues!!!!
