So what do you think of this? Sitting around at kids sports events you can really hear a lot about how parents want to be "cool" to their kids and let them get away with anything. I cannot believe how many parents allow their girls to stay overnight at their boyfriend' homes or let their boyfriends stay overnight at their homes! They say that it's ok because they're supervised. Yeah right. I guess those parents sit beside them all night! Gimme a break! Or what about parents that allow their kids to drink because it's in their home. They say they are safe at home and since they're allowed at home it won't be a big deal at other people's parties. Do they actually think that that will stop them from drinking in other places? I think too many parents want to be friends with their kids instead of being parents. What do you think?
