| WOW!!I left for three days and just had the opportunity to sit down and read the replys. I agree with parents educating their children, as you can see I said my son probably hears worse at public school than he ever would on here. I do not like censorship, on the same token I do not believe you can legislate or demand common sense or good judgement. I think this site is great, Mark is doing an excellent job and I in no way was attempting to criticize him. I did hear one point that I did not consider that is the most well taken: This is in essence a public place, I did not look at it that way originally and now I will.
There will always be the adult without common sense or restraint that does not care nor consider that ther are or may be children around. I must say that 99.999999% of all the members on this site are respectful of that and would like to thank them..(you know who you are). I know my son has probably heard worse words than the four letter English monosyllables you could print in this forum, both at school, in public, and at home. I am not now, nor have I ever been under the illusion that sheilding him from this entirely would benefit him later in life. In fact I disagree with that fact. We all have to live IN this world, we don't necessarily have to like it or be like it. Thanks for all of your input, and Mark I don't think you missed anything and again, Great Job. |
