and still have old-fashioned values. There aren't many nowadays. I am not saying I was perfect 20 years ago, cuz I definitely was NOT! BUT, what I AM saying is just look around you. Everywhere you turn, you have ADULTS have babies out of wedlock! And I'm talking about the ones that say they, "don't believe in marriage, or don't need a piece of paper." When we really know it is because the guy doesn't have respect enough to marry her and just wants to have sex with her! So therefore, how can these KIDS have respect for themselves, when the ADULTS don't show it and have respect for themselves? It is so sad nowadays. No commitment to marriage anymore or values. Not a lot of parents now control their kids or even take interest in what they are doing. I had 2 of those parents and I am the exact opposite of what my parents were. I am there, and I do check up on my kids and I talk to them all the time. Will I know everything at every moment - no. But I will know a LOT more than the parents who don't do anything at all and then claim, "I didn't know?!" No $hit Sherlock, because you didn't WANT to know! Hello!? Old-fashioned values, more parents need to adopt them, again, listen to Dr. Laura. She might be a pain sometimes, but she really knows what she is talking about! Okay, I am gonna go cool off now!
