bad parenting (rant)

[Captain Morgan]

Pretty stupid, but she's 16 and still thinks it's cool to get fucked up. I use to be that way, but managed to grow up a bit. Took awhile and several mistakes, but I finally got my head on straight.

It is still pretty cool to get fucked up. I truly enjoy drinking as much as the next fellow, but I'm over 21.

"Its the times." I hear this shit more and more. How does advancements in technology make it ok for crap like this? Lets cure cancer, not give a teen more ways for them to do what ever they want.

Exactly.

She's a 16 year old girl and her parents, neither of which are too sharp, want to be the bad guy so they let her do anything. They ahve also been going through a divorce for the past 5 years, they are separated and can't afford the $300 to file the paprework for a quickie divorce. Hell, I offered to give them $300 for it last year and they didn't accept it even as a gift that i didnt expect to get back because they didnt want to owe me any more money than they already do.

naw, but if shes not that hot, she should have fun now, before it gets worse! its downhill from here..

well, with her body, its already downhill, cause odds are good that before 18, she's gonna be pregnant with someones kid. I have no doubt that kids have been drinking, doing drugs, getting laid all the time when they were her age for decades, easily, BUT, until recently,nobody wanted to make it obvious because they knew they'd get hammered by the family. parents now are too pussy to do anything(generally speaking, but there are a few good parents that lay dwn the law still) and kids know this, so they think theres nothing to fear other tan the cops showing up.

It's amazing what kids consider "private" these days. And sad that so many parents don't care. my 16 year old's friends post pictures of themselve drinking - and half naked - and otherwise NOT appropriate pictures and I have contacted parents and their reply? "their profile is private, it's ok"
I hang up at that point and don't bother to point out that I'm NOT on their friends list and I can see it. Lucky for them, I'm not the pervert they have to worry about.
I monitor what my kids are doing online. Until such a time they become of legal age. That's my job. I take it seriously. The lessons are first - I teach them about hte internet and appropriate internet behavior. And then I just hang out in the background to make sure my rules and guidelines are bieng followed.

I have busted my son receiving pictures from a girl at school. I called her mom instantly - and because the photos were google images and not actually pictures of her daughter, she didn't seem to care. It was still porn. And it was still sent via email to my son. And it's still NOT OK. My son was punished harshly.
