I believe that essentially,you're probably right-however..I do feel that a parent should teach their children,right from wrong,not allow the children to decide.

Children,should be treated as children-not like little adults..liberals and gays,in America,are exploiting our children,and usurping parental authority,by treating children as little adults. I didn't treat my daughter like an adult,until she turned 18,I gave her more responsibility,as she grew older,but I was always the final arbiter of moral decisions..also,I didn't stop being a parent,once she grew up..I still give her advice and counsel-and will continue to do so,in a constructive way,with room for discussion,for the rest of my life.

Have a good one...Torog
my mum has always been there for me, to give me advice and to help me make decisions, and when i was younger she did teach me right from wrong.. but when it comes to religion, relationships, ethics, etc, she has let me decide for myself. Now you may have taken a different approach with your daughter, but ive turned out fine, and from what it sounds, so has your daughter.. so neither you or my mother were wrong, you just did things differently. thats all im saying
