I don't give a shit what they talk about. It's a physical security consideration. I'm not here to argue, I wanted other people's own experiences.
See, I'm still confused on why pro-choice ideologies make your relatives a physical security consideration.
I think he is worried that people with bad morals will influence their kids negatively.
There are two answers to that.
One, as a parent, your influence over your kids will be greater than anyone elses influence no matter what. The only question is if you use that influence. If you use your parental influence to pass on your morals, that effect will trump the effect of anything else.
The reason most... not all, but most kids go bad, is because parents simply don't use that influence. They get caught up in their work, or projects, or hobbies, or paying bills, or buying crap, and abrogate their responsibility.
Two, ultimately no matter how good you are as a parent, no matter how perfect you attempt to be, in the end you have no control over the choices of your kids. None. If a child ends up making the choice to go bad, there is nothing you can do to stop it.
Generally, this won't happen if you do your job as a parent, but there are no guarantees in this life, and especially over the actions of others.
For you who are Christians, just think about it this way.... did G-d fail as a parent? Or did human beings make bad choices regardless of what G-d did? How do you think G-d feels.
There is no way to completely protect your kids from negative influences. People that try to completely shelter their kids end up making a mistake. By sheltering them, they failed to give their kids time to adjust to negative influence and resist them. That's why sheltered kids sometimes go crazy the moment they leave home.
Johny was so wonderful and perfect held down in the basement for the last 20 years.... I just don't understand why he has AIDs and is hooked on Heroin one month after leaving for college!
Well because he never had to resist negative influences. So he had no experience of negative influence until he want to college, and he couldn't handle it.
