Re:The real weird part for us crazy Americans (Score 1)

You are correct, I did misunderstand your post. It is very important to be open about sex. I think in America we are in an awkward stage where sex is highly glamorized in the media, yet parents are petrified to talk to thier children about it. But there is a fuzzy line somewhere between being open about sex and glamorizing it. I would argue that "page 3 girls" and some other things you mentioned crosses that line. Concerning firearms, it is only natural that children are going to take some interest. Guns are far too commonplace on TV not to. I think that a "keep it all quiet and hope they don't find out" attitude towards firearms is a dangerous one. It is very important for kids to know what guns are for and when(if ever) their use is appropriate. That way should they( God forbid ) find themselfes in a position where they might want to use one, they will make the right choice.
