Yes I prefer the version: "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will only leave permanent psychological damage". |

And just to make it clear again, this was a protest on my part and not a way to silence unpopular thought. (Facebook allows it even as they ban nursing woman photos. Perhaps they should get their priorities straight.) Let them come here. At least there will be a debate on the subject.

But as one gets older, that's less and less true. I's not so much that us old folks' maturity makes us wiser and thus more resistant to verbal abuse, but rather that all the psychological damage that's possible has already been done. |
