What saddens me is that I've listened to African music, traditional African music.

It's wonderful! Complex rhythms, harmonies, beautiful sounds.

Yet these "African-Americans" listen only to this rap, hip-hop trash.

Pathetic!

Why is a 14 year old listening to 1500 vulgar songs and the parents don’t have a clue or don’t care?

That’s the real question.

You may not be able to stop them from encountering the music when they are with their friends or away from home, but you can lead by example and not allow it around your house and family.

Kids pick up on this. They want leadership and strength from their parents even when they rebel or are confused. Deep down they appreciate it later.

Seriously, the only question that really matters is WHY she is allowed to have all that crap on her personal ipod?
