On the weekend, NPR had a sound clip of a woman from the Goethe Institute
saying a new German word that, apparently, meant something like "fear and
regret because of holding your kid over a balcony for the press." I've only
the seen the transcript of the show, which doesn't include the German word.
Did anyone hear it, or does anyone know what the word is?

Thanks.
