Anyway this is all just another attempt to idiot-proof
the world. Instead of
just sitting down with their kids at a young age and explaining what sex
is and why it should be taken seriously, the lazy absentee parents think
the right thing is for their kids to be prevented at all costs from even
looking down in the bath tub, so that they have no idea what's really going
on, and it all comes as a total shock to them when they turn 18.
Exactly. This government is very big on "protecting the stupid".
Personally, I see it as "fighting Darwin"...natural selection can do
the right thing if left to its own devices.
Now, I don't have kids, so I'll not pretend to be an authority on
the subject...but it seems logical to me that keeping them informed
will go a lot farther than censoring the world for them.
How many people here *really* learned about the "birds & bees" from
their parents?
Wow, this IS off-topic!
