Baby dangling

Michael Jackson was severely criticized for holding his baby out over a balcony.  The child didn't fall; M.J.  was confident it was safe in his arms. Questions as to his fitness as a parent arose because of his apparent wish to cause a sensation at the expense of his child.   Placing a baby in simulated danger is at least equally evident in arranging for a baby to sit in front of a glass-fronted lion's den, where the animal repeatedly lashes out in an attempt to kill the child. What a thrill----just let your mind picture what would happen if the glass shattered, or if Blanket fell out of his father's arms.
