Default Bambi

My son, who just turned 3, got Bambi on DVD for his birthday. He LOVES it! So, when I was going out last night to try to get a late season deer he told me "You can't shoot a deer daddy. Just coyotes." Oh man, what did I do???

I think almost every kid goes through this after they watch that movie. It will pass In time.

Oh yeah, I am not worried about it. I just thought it was funny. I love the way a kid's brain works. They are constant entertainment.

I did have him "sighting in" his nerf bow on a big buck picture I cut out of a magazine. He thought that was awesome!

Unfortunatly Disney has cause alot of people to be anti hunting. And many people believe the wild animals are cute cuddly creatures that frollick in the woods....blah blah.....

Unfortunatly most of the people that see those movies have no tie to the reality of hunting (like your boy does). So they form groups like PETA, ALF, etc.....

Feed him some deer meat he'll get over it.

I was different....after I saw Bambi, Fox and the Hound, and some other disney flicks....I remember BEGGING my dad to take me hunting. I must have been some corrupt kid or something.

My son used to say, "dad, you can't kill bucks because then the babies will have no daddy!"...my older daughter would then chime in and say, "Jack, there are alot of buck dads, so YES daddy can kill a buck!"
