Most of us have kids around us of various ages whether it be your kids, nephews/nieces, or kids at work. Think back when you were their age.....what did you do or see that they won't?
My youngest is 8 years old and he will probabley never get to legally drink a beer because it will probabley be illegal. My oldest daughter will turn 18 in 6 months and still can't drink a beer on her birthday, but she can enlist and die for her country? I was legal to drink a beer at 18.

When I was 12 I went TPing with my brothers. My kids can't because now it is a huge fine and time in jail around here! If we got caught we got a "smack on the wrist" and had to clean it up...whoopy!

My kids will never understand that the Korean War was just that, a fucking war, not just a 1 paragraph "conflict" listed in their history books.
My kids won't truly understand Hitler, Germany, and the Holocaust because that has also been edited down to 1 paragraph because it was deemed "too violent" for their fragile little minds.

couple years back there was a ring that used to jump young kids ( between 12 and 15) for prositution. They also assult young adults and did kidnaps....at a road stop.
scary shit.
They also will never have a 3 D movie, with those little funky red/ blue glasses. to much tech for them to do that again.
Kat...remind me to NOT ever move to Ohio...what the hell is that TPing crap being illegal? I live in the burbs and people get TP'ed out here all the time. If its not cleaned up within a good amount of time; the Nazi HOA will contact the owner of the house, but hell, the kids do it all the time without fear of jail time.
You just need to get your ass down here....you can at least smoke outside ...standing 15 feet away from a door. They have cigar bars where you can go and smoke until your teeth are brown.......there is a nude beach, a skate park, our cops wear cowboy boots, most parents I know teach their kids the things the schools wont or cant.

Oh, it gets worse....don't soap the teacher's car windows either. Police called, 2 kids arrested, appeared in court, 3 weeks in the local Detention Center, $500.00 fine each, and the parents had to pay to have the teacher's car detailed ($750). The teacher also sued in civil court and won a $5000.00 claim for mental anguish! The parents of the 2 kids split the $5000 equally. This happened last year at our local JVS!!!!!!
BTW, there was NO physical damage to the car, it was only on her front and rear wind shield. and there was no vulgar words used or deplicted either.

Well that is just a teacher with a stick up her/kis butt. That is B/S. You see, if the LE officials get a complaint or someone presses charges ..they follow up. A simple, I am sorry, I will clean up the mess I made may just wipe the slate clean for some......I dont know though; some people are just so rigid and no fun. If I knew a group of kids who TPed my house, sure I would be pissed...make a few parent calls and ask them to clean it up and all will be well. For goodness sake..its just Toilet paper......I would probably even make them cookies to give them when they finished cleaning up...... but that is just me.
People just forgot how to be polite and face consequences so we have these Hitler type personalities slamming their fists down thinking that will teach our kids how to be nice since they think they cant. People just need to lighten up.

Haha, I said "what you talkin' 'bout Willis?" to one of my coworkers one day and he had no idea what I was talking about, a couple of us had to explain it to him.

I must confess though, my kids will/do walk to grade school, jhs and hs (all 3 within blocks of my house). I walked to gs everyday rain or shine. It was real tough to get over the "fear?" of letting them go alone. My lil girl is now at jhs and my son is gr3 they both walk alone to school. Somewhat comforted that my lil girl waits for my son to get out and come home together. But some of the above shit is rediculous. Those kids that got sued for SOAPING a car.. I would have counter sued for defam. of character.

They just passed a law up here that bans smoking altogether. I'm not talking about in buildings. It's banned even outdoors now, except in your own home. I don't smoke but jeez, who's gonna enforce that one? This ban incluseds bars and resteraunts. Sombody told me that it's okay in some casinos. WTF?
well, not in Ohio anymore you won't! The smoke-nazi's have spoken and all smokers will be persecuted to the fullest extend of the law financially and with jail time....fucking smoke nazi's!
As for the kids and the soaped car....it was an absolute crock of shit but it happened and the judge ruled on it....he's as much to blame as the asshole teacher who had the kids arrested and them sued the parents!
Hell, in Ohio most murderers serve less time than drug dealers! And we're not talking big-time drug dealers with pounds and pounds of pot either...we are talking users that happen to get slapped with intent to distribute because they sold their buddy 2 joints!

Smoking is not allowed here in any building (other than private homes, of course), with the exception of cigar/tobacco stores and casinos. My town was on the news last night about trying to eliminate smoking around the high school. The township's position is that the sidewalks, etc., around the high school are township property and township property is supposed to be smoke-free.
