I really, really wish people would spend as much time being concerned about what is going on in their own homes as they do being concerned about what is going on outside of it.
It's called living by example, and goes along well with "actions speak louder than words."
It seems to me that the time spent protesting the corner bikini coffee stand, Rap album, TV show, strip club, etc...would be much better spent instilling the values you are so vocal about in your children.
I can't help but feel like those speaking out the loudest are the ones that have the least control over their children and therefor feel the need to impose their ideas on society so that society can do the parenting for them.
Really, if you don't like a certain TV show then don't watch it. Don't want your kids watching a certain show...then be a parent and pay attention to what they are watching on TV.
Don't like the bikini coffee stand then go to Starbucks, there's one on EVERY corner!
Don't like certain music or artists, don't by the CD's.
I'm pretty confident that indifferent, uninvolved, lazy parents have more of an impact on society than bikini coffee stands etc.
I don't mean to offend anyone and this is not directed at anybody I know personally. Just an observation.
