If people aren’t panicked, they wouldn’t elect panic-pandering politicians, so there must always be a panic — crime, drugs, commies, libruls, etc.

    Part of it could just be parenting instincts. My wife is from a country where you can get heat stroke all year long. The first year, after our first child’s was born, my mother-in-law would call after every snow fall.

    Are you alright? Is the baby alright? How do you keep your house warm? Oh God what if you have to go into the car, there is no heat, and the baby dies!?

    Took reassurance and time. She really is a sweet woman.
