You are the one whining about the comments...they’re jokes. I think you need to lighten up. FR’s posters are probably >95% adults, do you expect everyone to post as though they are speaking to 14 year old girls? I am not familiar with his fan base as I am not a teen female. This isn’t a Justin Bieber fan site.

No, I’m not a 14 year old girl, but I am a parent and that is the problem here.

Would you appreciate these type “jokes” (many of which are not, BTW) being thrown at your 18yo son or about your 14yo daughter? I expect not.

There are actually many long time members here who have always allowed their children to read much of the content because of the respectful way various news topics have been covered. It has been a teaching/learning tool for the next generation of conservatives. Remember one of the tenets of this site is that it is PRO-family and young FReepers have always been encouraged.

Unfortunately of late I have found that I am having to play censor on what threads I allow my daughter to read because the quality of postings have been allowed to deteriorate. Heck - I play censor for myself, because so much of the postings no longer are of the caliber for which FR had previously been known.

You think I’m whining? Fine, that’s your prerogative. I know I am not and that trumps your opinion. Don’t like my posts - don’t read or respond to them.

Just remember, what you post reflects upon you, not upon the one to whom you are posting and insulting or making fun of the next generation of potential conservatives is not the way to win hearts and minds.
