Your kids also wonder why grown ups are so screwed up. The kids are not the ones on prozac.

Parents are way, way, way TOO involved with their kids. These girls have probably had every minute of their lives micromanaged by their psychotic terrified moms, not allowed to play anywhere except when mom drives them (strapped into government-mandated strait jackets) to organized "play" facilities (using approved safety equipment) under supervision (of state-licensed recreation administrators).

There. Deal with that truth, if you can.

Oh yes I am sure that caring parenting was at fault here. I am also very sure that actually giving a crap where your children are was to blame and let's not forget protecting your child that is at fault to. The answer clearly is let you child run wild, go where they want when they want, drink, smoke, do drugs, lie, steal, join a gang, to hell with school and let's not forget leave others to raise YOUR child. Yes that clearly is the way to go.

Regardless of how you see it, life is not black and white.

You have no idea what kind of parents these girls have. It just makes you feel better to think that they must not have good parents because then you can fool yourself into thinking that if you are a 'good parent' your kids will never do anything stupid or morally objectionable. Of course when they do (and they WILL)....you will blame it on a morally degenerating society and those trampy girls who lead them astray.

Oh good greif with this crap again. I have said many times that I don't know what kind of parents these girls have but I also don't feel letting your children run rampant is the answer either. I have said countless times teach your children self respect the chances of this happening are less. I am very aware that children can make mistakes even with good parents and I have also said that if they do make mistakes they will have to deal with the consequences.

Of course. People HAVE to blame something for undesirable behavior because they just cannot believe that it's normal.

15 year olds flashing breasts is normal? Where do you live?

CHildren, especially boys will push the limits they are given.
Lesser limits, less good conduct.
