I certainly agree parents should take responsibility in raising their kids. But family is just one part. School, community, society all play roles in affecting how our children grow up. Your hands-off attitude sounds like "everybody should be able to take care of their own problem". Following the same logic, should parents take hands off approach as well? We don't need parenting at all, just let the kids sort things out themselves. Government regulation is not always a bad idea if the industry does not regulate itself. The effectiveness of regulations such as tv and movie ratings, drinking age regluations etc is arguable. However, with our next generation at stake, we need to make very effort to make it easier for parents to take care of their children. With all those small internt cafe owners lurking around the corner for after school kids, there is something needs to be changed.
