The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

You also are free to possess an opinion that children should not be exposed to such things and (here is the important part) you are free to express that opinion. It often seems the practitioners and fans of fetishism are demanding that you not only tolerate the activity but express approval of exposing children to the activity to prove you are not some sort of hater.

Exactly! DH and I raised our two sons according to our family values. School was for the teaching of the three 'R's, being members of the band, scouts after school etc. not for drag queens drama recitals and the use of the correct pronoun BS.

Drag Queens have their place in life and I don't interfere with their life style, it's none of my business, but do not indoctrinate my sons as if it is the norm.

And no, I'm not from Mayberry, USA.... I was born and raised in the Heart of Manhattan, Harlem, where even a girl had better learn how to fight and stand her ground. So no, I'm not naive to what the 'big city life' is about.
