I was babysitting yesterday and talking to this cute goth mom at the park about sunblock and she was like I don't really use that on him because he tans. She's every bit as pale as me and her kid isn't much darker. That made me sad, because I've heard sun burns as a child do worse damage than they do later on in life and I told her that, but I don't know enough about having melanin or UV damage to really judge her parenting.
