Sex is a natural thing and testicles are a part of the body every male has. I try to raise my children without a lot of exposure to violence but, parts of the body & how they work are something they know about.
Even as 7 year olds, my children knew what those were and didn't give them another thought. Gross & stupid but, nothing to get me all embarassed or stymied over. They asked, I told them. They also have a very good sense of humor.
When a child asks a question they deserve the truth. They then, very quickly, move on to the next question. Unless I am stumped or embarassed, then they get REALLY interested!

How about just having to turn in your keys and pass a breathalizer before you get them back at a bar. They already have someone at the door to check IDs..so add a lockable box for keys & a machine to check if you should be on the road. It wouldn't be perfect but, already a business can be prosecuted for serving a person who then commits a crime behind the wheel..Wouldn't this save them some money in the long run and do something to knock down the drunk driving? I don't drink so having to do this would be no big deal for me, I am always the designated driver :o).

I think it would be cool to have a monorail set up, run by solar power, on tracks built up kind of like the pipeline, that could take tourists on a round trip run. From, say Fairbanks - Chena Hot springs. Think of all the accidents that would be prevented!!
It could have a clear dome over the track that the train went through that would keep the snow off the tracks..solar panels strips along both sides and clear glass above and below to see through & it would be really quiet so it wouldn't scare the animals, that could roam right under it...Doesn't that sound awesome!!! Somebody please tell me if this could work?? LOL

I am not pro abortion. I am however pro choice. It is all about economics and not morals in this arena..ONLY low income women do not have either, the economic choice of which clinic to go to, or the financial ability to go elsewhere for quality medical care. Higher income people have the economic power of choice.

The bible also states "All things in moderation."
As far as I am concerned all drugs should be legal...those who would abuse or kill themselves with any substance will do so regardless of whether it is legal or not. Or where it is located.
Alcohol IS one of the worst of the abused DRUGS out there and as has been pointed out prohibition did not work!
Personal responsibility is not something that is learned as an adult without a lot of pain, as is pointed out in your letter.
It comes easiest to those who were held responsible for their actions even as young children. We should be raising children who will be strong, educated, disciplined adults who are supposed to oversee our government! The lack of these is WANTED by our government in order to control us! Our public education system is set up for this... Conformity in thinking by the lower ranks...
Government wants us all of us "peons" fighting over petty *stuff* like marijuana, abortion, race ect..so we look to them in our stupidity to tell us what to do & are divided and not looking at what is truly important...Being the educated overseers of Government we are supposed to be! A people should NOT be afraid of it's Government, Government should be afraid of it's people! Government in it's fear of the people will try it's hardest to control them.

I do not have the education to teach my children ALL they need to know.
I would just "assume" enhance, at home, what is "a" taught in public school. Where do all these children in public school come from if they were aborted? I believe you have every right to teach them about God at home(just like the parents who send their kids to public/private school do) as long as that teaching adds to our society as a whole..Critical, outside the box, original thinking is good..Our God is the only god and all others need to conform or go to hell is Bad. It is worse when said child gets no other view point. Extremism ring a bell. Middle Eastern religions are not the only ones with a problem with this.
