Bizarre Poop Cartoon Helps Children Grasp Nuclear Threat to Japan

[justnotcricket]

I think htat's one of the best PSA-for-Kids style things I've ever seen. It's cute, it's funny and disarming, but it still explains what's going on and the risks to people near 'Nuclear Boy' without being alarmist and unnecessarily dramatic. I feel so sorry for Chernobyl boy...they can't use that classroom any more.... =(

Hope they get the plant under control soon =)

Oh, Japan. Just when I think you've become predictable, you go out and prove me wrong.

What the fuck, Japan?

Oh, Japan. Just when I think you've become predictable, you go out and prove me wrong.

I think that sums up the strangeness we've come to expect from Japan...then they turn the dial to 11 and shock us all over again...

Hey its better then the crap America puts out to help kids coup with disaters

I don't think comparing this to poop is all that better. It puts the whole thing in a temporary mindset the effects of Chernobyl are still felt today in birth/child defects health problems and damage to the ecosystem. Japan is in a similar situation not to mention they still have birth defects from citizens exposed to radiation from WWII. So these children won't grow up surprised at the impact this incident will have, they need to have it explained with a more serious tone not colorful poop analogies.

I wonder how many Japanese children are now totally refusing to use the bathroom.
