Re: Parental responsibility

Less, I think that most parents are aware that children will test their mettle.(in every respect)
You can only do what you can do.
You cannot be behind the little darlings 24 hrs a day.

As for drugs, I wish there was some additive they could put in the concoctions that turn their skin green and warty.
Then parents would know what they had been up to...and no girl would want to be wearing that look...and no boy would ever get a girlfriend looking like toad of toad hall.

There are other things as well....sending rude pictures to one another on mobile phones.
As a teen I would not undress in front of anyone...I was far too embarrassed to exhibit naked flesh.
So what has changed in young girls/boys of today? I'm blowed if I know.
