    Every time I hear the "D" word these days, I can't help but think of:


    Yes. Good parents control every aspect of their kid's lives.
    I'd love to meet the parent who seriously thinks they're in complete control of their child.
    Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.

    Just, be kind.

    I expect bad parent to try to control their kids. I expect good parents to try to influence their kids to make good decisions. So either way: I expect parents to try and be involved in as much of their kid's life as possible.

    If you've never made your own decisions, how will you magically know how to do it at 18?

    Being allowed to drive before you're "allowed to have sex" is pretty damn stupid, if you ask me.

    Sounds like awful parenting. What part of having no idea how to figure something out for yourself makes you a useful contribution to society. Parents who don't have totalitarian control of their childs life aren't negligent, they still shape things. I'm not suggesting young children here I'm thinking once you're like 15. Deciding a few things for yourself is absolutely a good thing.

    What the fuck is the age of majority? Even more so, what makes you think that literally overnight you're suddenly imbued with the knowledge to make good decisions. That's dumb. A good parent doesn't let their child get into a dangerous position where someone could take advantage, with regards to sex that is lets stay on topic. That doesn't require complete control though.

    I'm 20 and would sooner be involved in a car crash than have a child, because having a child would turn my life into a car crash so why go for both sufferings when I can just have one.

    oh great, someone fed him -.-

    anyways, I feel for the judge who has this case. Wasting your time with this nonsense because the destrict attorney wants another (imagined)medal for himself...

    There are so many better things one can do with his time. Sorting screws for example. Cleaning the inside of picture frames. rearranging your food storage

    And cars are so sexual too! They hum, they purr, they whine, they groan, they've got sticks and rods and oh I'm getting hot just thinking about it.

    If you think that's absurd, how about "We can send you off to kill people and/or die, but you're not allowed to have a beer"?

The age of consent is up to debate for sure but it needs to be there and we need to punish the act where we can. It's the only real preventative measure we have.
    So when does responsibility begin? 16? 18? 25? 50? This arbitrary age limit thing is pointless. I know children more responsible than adults and adults as irresponsible as children. What we need to do is stop coddling everyone and everything. Responsibility doesn't magically happen when you turn 18. You either choose to be responsible and accountable for your actions. Or you don't.

    Both underage, consenting parties should be charged.

    Girls already scream rape when the male does something to piss them off. Helicopter parents(who most likely had underage sex) are screaming rape when their precious child's feelings are hurt.

    Lets make everybody's life hell when underage kids are charged with underage sex. Hell lets charge the parents for child neglect. Maybe there will be less bullshit charges being thrown around.

    Now in legit rape or statutory rape by a person in a position of trust(teachers) we need heavier penalties.
