To an extent yes. Of course children need to be encouraged to think and decide things for themselves. However as a society I think we have forgotten that there are quiet a few things in life which shouldn't be about children. They do the main new years eve fireworks in Sydney at 9:00 for families for f sake with a second poorer show at midnight. Children under about 12 or so don't belong at weddings etc and in some cases restuarants. People are so shelfish with their children and don't even see the detremental effect the little buggers have on other peoples enjoyment. If I can't smoke on a train why should I have to put up with your offspring runnning and yelling and smelling like pee.
APBM same question (Since I got a chance for a little rant)

yes. i think thats why they act so irresponsibly because they aren't getting to participate or contribute something of value and feel good about themselves.

Sometimes it is pretty hard. One person's freedome fighter could be another person's terrorist.

i'd say the people who painted the lascaux caves. it's the oldest (reemaining) example of art, architecture, and religion. without those three things the world would be...different.

I have no guilt over my pleasures. But I probably shouldn't snack so much
APBM, I am going to repeat my question. disaster boy's answer is good (there actually is no wrong answer here) but I want the name of an individual. So, who would you say was the single person who changed the world the most, and why?

Do your feet smell? Does your nose run? If so, you were built upside down.
