I think some of us aren't quite "getting it". Do you know why the media are selling sex to kids? Because they know that many moms and dads aren't home all the time so they can control them. With dual income families, and big box stores who are able to sell fashionable clothing and other items at an affordable price, most families are able to afford these things for their kids. It's a little harder to say "we can't afford it" now than it was before, and with all these confusing rules on what constitutes child abuse and what doesn't, some parents don't really bother to punish their kids if they throw a temper tantrum. Let's just say that the kids are just too spoiled.
