Daily Shot: Where Have All the Heroes Gone?
It's a sad day for Sesame Street fans: Kevin Clash, the puppeteer who plays the voice and body of Elmo, is in hot water again after more underage sex allegations have surfaced. Ali and John discuss how to explain these scandalous heroes like Elmo, Lance Armstrong, and Tiger Woods to your kids. Ali thinks the key is to be compassionate and to use these scandals as an opportunity to teach your kids moral lessons without erasing the heroic qualities they have grown to admire in these people.
How do you explain these heroes to your kids? Tell us in the comments.
More can't-miss moments: Ali talks a research scientist who discovered the gene that tells you what time of day you'll die, a 17-year-old teenager who was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 10 years of going to church, and a San Francisco-based artist who created a 25-pound likeness of Honey Boo Boo made entirely out of the things this reality star is known for: Mountain Dew bottles, cheese ball containers, hairspray bottles, and more.
