I don’t remember how I learned the traditional nursery rhymes. From my parents? In school? Books? No idea.
However it was for me, do children still learn them? If not, will there be a time when cartoonists no longer do jokes about Humpty Dumpty? Or the Cat and the Fiddle? Or Jack and Jill?
And does anyone rock their babies to sleep using the old lullabies? I’ll admit, some are rather morbid like “Go, tell Aunt Nancy the old grey goose is dead.” Are we teaching the new generations to be afraid of life? Or death for that matter.
Another appearance of the Child. Going to assume “Mom” owns the place for the kid to so freely help herself to the livestock. If not, Mom has boundary issues :D

Some well deserved peace and quiet for Stan and Karl for a while.
