The current generation has a highly distorted view on sexuality heavily influenced mainly by lack of parenting, ..........
That still can't excuse stupidity.
That infamous line again.... blaming the parents. Is your sister a bad mother? Was the doctor out playing golf when he should have been at home with the kids? I don't think it's a good idea to curb your children's adventurous spirit. They learn nothing in the process. Don't we give them space to grow on their own?
It's what happens in that given space that is worry-some.
NO... tho it may happen in some cases, generally it's not the lack of parenting but the influence that society places on children which creates peer pressure among them. Influenced by personality figures in entertainment, fashion and mod culture.
They took it a step too far - for personal gain in money, recognition or just to do one step higher than their competition. And no thanks to the people backing them,... talent managers, record companies, corporations, etc.....
Take the VMA officials and big-wigs of the entertainment industry... if they cared or was concerned of the negative effect she would have on young girls, they would have sanctioned her or disallowed her performance in the first place. Don't tell me they didn't know what was to come...... NOOOOO... it pulled in viewership, started tongues wagging, cash registers ringing...... there they are - secretly rubbing their hands in selfish glee.
Don't tell me you people of my age group took up the bell-buttoms, long hair, marijuana and defiance to authority coz our parents didn't keep an eye on us? Back then, it was the in-thing, coolest trend..... started by? ..... your parents? teachers?
