On one hand, until the child is 18, I believe that parents should have some say as to what their children will / will not learn. On the other hand, as society is becoming more and more "open" about issues such as homosexuality and multiculturalism, it's important for children to be exposed to everything out there so that they aren't shocked that the "real-world" isn't the same as their sheltered lifestyle.We're raising a generation of overprotected "pussies". Parents don't allow children to play on the street anymore (without constant supervision); kids are constantly supervised, tracked, and sheltered from the outside world by their parents. At some point in time, the real world sets in. From my observation, the kids who were the most sheltered during childhood end up becoming the most "wild" during their early-Adulthood and are probably more prone to end up using drugs, pregnant, etc. than their less sheltered counterparts. |
