I know this is very easy for me to say, seeing as I have no children, but a lot of parents seem too indulgent of their children. Yeah, your 14-year old may want a micro-mini skirt with HOTTIE written across her butt, but that doesn't mean you give her $100 and tell her to have at it.

What really skeeves me out is when you see these little 12-, 13-year olds on myspace posing in bikinis and describing themselves as "sexilicious" or some crap like that. Even worse is when their parent(s) are on their friends list.

I just sound older by the minute, don't I?
