If children are Mexico's greatest treasure, why do no Mexican parents supervise their kids -- riding their bikes on the road, playing with sticks, climbing on the playground equipment -- while they're running around our compound?

Here's something else they should be looking out for: peeing! A notice went out to all the compound families, which said that kids both large and small had been observed peeing in the park: in the grass and in the sandbox. The letter urged parents to watch their kids, as "we do not want to have to send pictures [of the perpetrators] with this kind of communication." (i.e. a community-wide bulletin)
