My family just recently gained custody of my six year old cousin, Joey. Joey came from a rough background. He's been exposed to much violence, both at home, and at school
. Anyway, I was talking to my mother, about what might influence children to become violent. And she complained about actions in certain television shows. Like, "Drake and Josh", in which there is slapstick. I replied that I do not believe that we clowns, including Auguste, are responsible for fighting. Like I do not think that our throwing pies will make children want to throw stones at each other. But what is the line in how far we can go with physical comedy? How can we show people that violence is foolish, and not fun?
