Exactly. As a little kid, my parents controlled what I watched on TV, what games I played, all of that. They even made sure the books I read weren't too graphic or violent. Until recently, I wasnt supposed to watch COPS, and until i was about 10, I wasnt supposed to watch wrestling. I'm still not allowed to watch South park. and theres a lot of books (most fiction books about murder) I'm still not allowed to read.
If there were more parents that actually cared about what their child was doing, we wouldnt have a lot of the problems we have now.
