Nor do you expect the internet to do that. You are an ACTIVE parent and take an active role in your childrens lives. The kind I am talking about are the parents who spend there whole life worrying about there career or partner that they really do not pay any attention to there children, let alone play an active role in there life. Game consoles etc are just as bad. If your kid likes to play games, play WITH them. Just engage your child. It matters. Do you know how many parents in this country cannot say what you said about your kids? You KNOW your kids. You take an active role and interest. - SJ You did not expect the television to raise your kids. Nor do you expect the internet to do that.

I get to disagree with you on one thing, finally! You can't really blame the parents completely unless they are total asses. I'm not even close to being a perfect parent, but I've tried to raise my kids with morals and ethics. I've tried to teach them to be caring, loving and tolerant people, BUT, they could still grow up to be whatever their brains tell them to be. Already I can see a big difference in the personalities of my three kids. Sharai is wild and out of control (but still has a good heart,) She likes to fight. Shadd is intolerant of a lot of people but very social to the people he likes. He likes to start drama wherever he can. Dylan just likes everybody and is not a fighter or an arguer. They were all raised exactly the same. I can see you blaming the parents if they haven't done a damned thing to try to rear their children, but I believe that most do. Ah-ha!
