Conscious and responsible parenting is the cornerstone of a healthy nation.

Agreed, 1LT (Join to see). This is a problem around our country. I know that just about all generations think the next generation is going down the toilet. I'm kind of continuing that tradition. I see a lack of respect in today's youth. I'm sure we'll carry on as the greatest nation on earth, but every time we "slip backwards," we move closer to the threat of NOT being the greatest nation on earth any longer.

Problem is, it's takes a responsible parent to raise a child responsibly. It's not a race, religion or even financial thing, it's personal. There are a lot of irresponsible adults out there.

Parents should be held accountable for their children past curfew, in my hometown curfew won't work because of irresponsible parents and lazy law enforcement. It is one of the reasons why we have out of control kids, the line have to be drawn somewhere if not we will hear more tragic stories.
