In Response To: If (Pat MacNeil)

> I am not, as one would suggest, being overly protective of children.

How do you reconcile that with your opening statement:

>The issue ? Underage participation for MONEY. This is so very, VERY wrong. Some of you have said it’s up to the parents to decide. Where is it written that just because you’re an adult you’re capable of making intelligent decisions. Once upon a time slavery was legal. Once upon a time women weren’t allowed to vote.

IMO, the real abuse to children is to indoctrinate them that their parents don't have the intelligence to protect them. Second to that is teaching them that they can win arguments on the backs of slaves and women.
