I'll put on some fire resistant pants for this response. A Tom Leykis response would be, Mr. Focault's Pendulum, when you give a pool party for your late teen daughters and you see their friends in thong bikinis and all, do you manage to keep out all thoughts of sex in your mind, or are you human?

Morality is to choose not to act, when you know it is wrong. If don't feel anything, then it is not a test of morality. Just another day. But if you do feel something, something you may desire, but you are able to resist temptation, what does that say about your character? I think Scott's test has been made public. He failed.

We don't give enough credit to young people. I know a bunch that would never have done anything this stupid. If you have not been able to impart your wisdom by the age of 11, how do you expect to do it at 17 (it's tougher, duh)?

While I can respect your measured response, I have to take issue with the above statement.

It appears, by reversing the ages of the individuals involved, you're attempting, perhaps inadvertantly, to blame the underage female, for the situation that developed.

My query ....why does a forty one year old male, need to meet with a teenage female? Does he simply want a platonic compionship?
