“I think you son should be required to head on down to the Interstate to pick up garbage along the side of the road.”

Oops....sorry. I had no idea they were going to be forced to be on a dangerous interstate picking up garbage. I guess I missed that.

I think you son should be required to head on down to the Interstate to pick up garbage along the side of the road. It will be good for your self-esteem. As far as my kids go, I will determine what is best for their self-esteem.

LOL! No, what you did was miss the point and address what wasn't the point.

Go back and figure it out.

Okay?

Thanks!

I think you are missing a lot of things...like the concept of freedom. They are my children...and neither YOU or the Government have any right to mandate that my children do anything that I may not approve of. Its my job as a parent to raise them...not the government's.

Do you NOT get that? It might not be picking up garbage...but it may be something that I find equally objectionable and against my values (speaking generically). If the master "LIST" of exceptable community service oppurtunities clashes with my values...in THIS society of FREE CHOICE...I WIN...or at least I used to until people such as yourself started selling out their freedom little pieces at a time.

You can package it anyway you like...put pretty little bows on it...nice little ribbons...but it still clashes with the fact the 13th amendment states the Federal government CANNOT require involuntary service (except for those convicted of crimes) from my child. Maybe you want to wipe your backside with the constitution (or maybe just that part)...but if you are willing to sell out that part...it won't be long until they take away the 1st and 2nd amendment from you too.
