LOL. I mean, seriously? What TV shows and movies and, oh, yeah, other kids do they think that THEIR kids are seeing/hanging out with? Parents in this day and age seem to have some sort of brain-filter for their OWN thoughts. The "cognitive dissonance parenting" filter, that allows you to think that your Johnny or Suzie isn't "like that." That they won't swear, won't have sex (without your express consent), won't smoke dope, won't drink...jesus wept, has anyone been paying attention to statistics on teen behavior?

Sheesh. They probably "censored" Catcher. Or Twain. Take your bloody pick.
