M'lord David,
 
I for one am disappointed that you have the capability of writing on behalf of 
Their Excellencies in so flippant a fashion.   I will be direct, and to the 
point, and addressing you, specifically, in the belief that your words do not 
actually represent the thoughts of those those noble gentles you claim to 
represent.
 
Quite frankly, you don't have children, so are in absolutely no position to 
speak on this matter at all.   By opening your mouth in this fashion, you 
belittle the concerns of those who do.   I find it offensive, and I don't 
usually take offense at things said by anyone, much less one barely into his 
majority.
 
I am the parent of four young children.   I am raising them in a world that is 
just a little different than the one in which your noble parents raised you.   
Discussion of ways in which they can be kept safe in the midst of today's 
mundane world is of the utmost importance to me, and should be to the parents of 
all children, and other adults who are around them.   They are, after all, our 
future.
 
While I am delighted that you, m'lord, are comfortable with the whereabouts of 
your siblings at all times, I would like to point out the relative age 
differences between you, for instance, and my daughter, who is five.   I am sure 
that you feel capable of handling any "uncomfortable" situations that may be 
directed towards you.   I am not so sure of her abilities in that regard.   So, 
I will take steps to see that she, and the rest of my children, are as safe as 
possible in all situations, even those events and activities sponsored by the 
noble and chivalrous citizens of the Known World.   Any attempt to prevent me 
from accomplishing this goal, or action by an individual to reduce the 
effectiveness of my efforts, I will view as a threat to my children.
 
I will take action accordingly.
 
If my words are not gracious, I make no apology.   They are intended to be 
direct, and pointed.   While it is not my intent to cause offense, it is my 
intent to make sure that you, m'lord, as well as all others, know on this matter 
I will brook no flippancy when discussing the safety of my children, and all 
children in general.   If you are amused by our attempts to find ways of 
providing this safety, I suggest you be amused in silence.
 
Lord Padruig McTavish
Father of Four
Protector of the Wrack
Bard of Arrows' Flight

This is David writing on behalf of His and Her Excellencies
The Viscounty Sable Panther doesn't see the need for identification of its 
children, in this letter we will tell you where they always will be:

Jessica; Running around in a cotehardie with a boffer in hand (usually with 
other children).

Elizabeth; Following a Queen, Princes, Countess or any assortment of pretty, 
shiny hats worn by females. (or at the flower shop on that rare occasion)

Kattriana; With the swishy pokes on or off the list field, or singing for 
pretty, shiny hats.

Racheid; Will be with his Knight, with others in that household, or anywhere 
where there is drumming and smoking.

Me!!! David, I know where i am! if ya wanna know, With His Mag, Her Mag, His 
Royal Highness, Her Royal Highness, Da, Uncle Richard, Uncle Tommy, Uncle 
Ulrich, or Uncle Basil. If I'm not with them, I'm on the list field, battle 
field, or with anyone whom needs my help, assistance, or council. If not found 
there, look for ladies and you shall find me.

The oldest child, will be found with a pointy hat, white belt, unadorned gold 
chain, very very very jingly spurs. 
We know where we are, do you know where you are???
Thank you 
m'lord David of the Crosswinds (original SCA Child)
