Around Azeroth: Won't somebody please think of the children?

In the spirit of Children's Week, Jahzina of <Archaic> on Trollbane sent us this lovely picture of her Argent Squire's vacation in Grizzly Hills. Man, the treatment of children in Azeroth is horrifying. First we bring them into war zones, then we force them to watch as we eat delicious treats and don't share, and now we're up to abandoning them in the woods to be mugged by psychotic loners while we watch from our flying mounts and laugh? Why would we do such things to these poor, defenseless youngsters? They would be put to much better use as human shields during raids. No death animation = easy-mode Undying achievement.
Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see them on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

LoLed.
I always chastise my guild for bringing their kids to Naxxramas.
"Hey kid - see Thaddius there? Well thats made up of kids like you. And possibly your mother..."

You're right.
Keeping them around for amusement isn't optimal for our productivity.
Us Forsaken will have no qualms picking up some extra armor. Dont know about everyone else, though...

New solution to fighting Gluth: feed her children until she falls asleep.
Obviously.

For some reason this picture really reminds me of "Misery."

That huge flag attached to his back has to be heavy too. You know he's going to develop back problems at an early age.

is it really so hard to just say to yourself, 'i like this feature i'm going to have fun with it' or 'i don't like this feature i'm not going to use it'? seriously, stFu already.
