[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When they talked about the kids' friends, there was failing school, drugs, tattoos, teen pregnancy. So these issues are present in their kids' social circles but as long as their kids steer clear, it's fine? I can't fathom letting my kids be within 20 miles of that sort of culture. I would literally sell our house tomorrow if my kids were hanging out with low people like that. It wasn't really THAT big of a deal to them.

Grades weren't you better get A's... it was as long as they're passing we don't really pay attention to it. They had no idea what sort of classes they were taking (AP, honors, normal track).[/quote]

You are delusional if you think your kids' circle is free of drugs, tattoos, and the possibility of teen pregnancy. [/quote]

[b]I can assure you on good authority there aren't kids failing out of school, getting kicked out of their house, getting arrested, getting tattoos, in my kids' social circles. They're letting their kids mix with trash and didn't seem all that concerned about it; actually in denial about it, that their kids are different and a little better than the peers in their social circles.[/b][/quote]

But there are drugs and abortions in your kids' circle. Because they can steal mommy's pills and money from daddy to go to the doctor.

You are gross AND naive OP.[/quote]
