Anyways, she has been talking about the movie non stop and wanted me to look for some Horton Hears a Who coloring pages, so I went online to see what I could find... and found this.
Now I am not usually one to get upset about the many ways that people throw around the word adopt. But this I don't get. There is not one mention of adoption in the movie, just an Elephant trying to save a place called Whoville.... (maybe I need to see the movie again! ha ha)
So I go on to see what it says, how to adopt a "Who" and this is the certificate that you get to print off... I just find this so offensive! Couldn't it be at least positive language, about love and family ? No, instead there is the
"Adopt a Who Promise
I promise to care for my Who
I promise to dress my Who in cool clothes (wtf!?!)
I promise to always keep my Who safe"

that is just the world we live in....they just don't get it most of the time!
Well.. I'll fail big time.
I already know that I won't be dressing my kid in cool clothes. I'm such a dork.
If only it were that easy to adopt, let me sign a certificate with 3 promises and bingo-bango process complete.
I think it is in bad taste as well, they shouldn't be misleading kids into thinking that's how the world works.
