Goodnight Moon, “The Wire” style (by tjb1013)
Sadly i never watched this show in full but this part is just so sweet!
Rather than shutting the doors; or in this case windows, to the surrounding dangers that her kid has to grow up in, Kima teaches her young son to be aware of the dangers of life in the hood, but only while being in the safety of her arms. Kima knows that while she may not be able to control the dangerous influences that come with growing up/ raising a child in the hood, and rather then turning a blind eye to it all, she can choose to teach her child to be aware of the dangers and how to overcome them at an early age and just hope that he will learn to grow up to make the right choices for himself.
