It would seem that my dignity plays no part in chere maman's quest to preserve the still-in-the-womb pallor of my complexion. When I venture to the beach, no part of my skin is allowed a brief flirtation with the deadly rays of our blistering sun.
I was amazed that chere maman hadn't strapped a sunshade from the bridge to cover the beach.
Fortunately she was able to use her body to block any potential stray rays.
After a good three minutes of the great outdoors chere maman bid me hasten back to the car and it's soothing shade.

Truly a mother's worries are never-ending: I just read a new report that Australians are developing a crisis of Vitamin D deficiency (rickets! osteoporosis!) because of our phobia of sunlight. The report said there's a fine line between the correct amount of sunshine to avoid Vit D deficiency while also avoiding skin cancer, but of course no further info on how to identify that fine line...
