You know that person you can be open with and he will help you mature and help you in everything and what-not? Well that was me, myself and nobody. I give most of the credit to my parents but I learnt most things by myself through experience and THEN I asked my parents about it. Most people, its either "parents all the way" or "screw parents, I do what I want". Some have absolutely good parents BUT they are too rebellious outside due to not having enough freedom. Me? I once went down the wrong path, but I realized by myself the truth and stopped. There was no merit from it and I realized my immaturity. I was contradicting myself and the moment you break your own personal rules is when you stop being a person.

And its alright if kids were level headed and had self-control, then they can do what-ever the hell they want and no harm would be done, but the problem is that they are NOT level-headed. The percentage of level headed people is far lesser than the average people.

I blame negligence. Even if there is porn and violence and drugs in front of a child, if the parent or guardian is right next to them and educate them instead of punishing them or forbidding them, then things would be a lot better. Hell, I could smoke if I wanted to. I know where every single cigarette packet in the house is, but do I? No. That's cause I wasn't forbidden, I was merely revolted by it through experience.

And me and worried parents agree that children shouldn't have access to the internet. Even if one child is level-headed it does not extend to his peers, they will also demand it from their parents and viola! the cycle has started again.

Know the secret at my house? No room is locked. Anyone can come and go as they please and all the windows face the busy road. You know how people hide porn mags in their rooms? Well if you lived my lifestyle you would be thinking "Uh... what's the point of that?"

I get too into these topics >_> I apologize. Please ignore this if you want.
