Hey, IOC, I Got Kids Here!
A guest Probeatorial by
Kellie Whittaker
I feel it is my duty as a woman, an American, and a mother of three
to implore the International Olympic Committee to change the event
dress codes. Is there anything wrong with demanding loose-fitting
pants and T-shirts for these athletes?
My 12-year-old son won't come out of his room for half an hour after
he watches gymnastics or beach volleyball, and my 13-year-old
daughter is having long AIM chats with her friends about
"Thorpedo" and wondering how the male divers' suits keep from
creeping down below the Equator, if you catch my drift.
Luckily, the baby (10) doesn't know what all the fuss is about as he
pretty much stays in the other room eating Chee-tos and playing
"Outlaw Golf." I'm just glad he's not out here watching the parade of
bodies with the rest of us.
