*Not guilty??? Are you blind?*
At 15 does it matter? Come on! You never was with a 2 bagger?
*Numerous FReepers always assure us that the teenage boys enjoyed it - and maybe they did - and she surely deserves a medal for breaking them in, rather than a millstone!*
Who wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of a lotta thatta boys and pats on the back? I’d do that for my nephew and let his mom be the bad guy. His dad would express a lotta pretend anger.
There’s more. Think ‘The Last Picture Show’. Cybil Shepard. Cloris Leachman’s queer husband wanted to leave her alone with the teenage boy he ‘approved’ of. Dying town. Not much excitement so it had to be manufactured. Those things happen. So how do you keep it from happening? A stable family life would help so that any straying would be brought back into the fold before it gets outta hand. We’re beyond that. Thank the left.
All the stray kids. A new government agency of boarding schools? Parents required to ‘volunteer’ 10 hours a week? It would prevent a Hitler Youth Corps. Doable. Won’t happen. Btw-it takes a village-heard it somewhere.
