saying goodbye to ethd

Quillan, I understand what you are saying completely. There are TONS of things that are against the law I feel are retarted. All I am getting at is that is seems contradictory for a anyone to openly tell a child, "yes it's against the law, but that's ok because I think the law is stupid."

As far as www mentors. I did not necessarily mean any tom dick and harry is mentor. All I meant was the same thing that you have all said time and time again, which is that responsible hog doggers set an example, be it to children, or adults, and that example needs to be as good as possible. Blatantly and openly saying that we choose not to follow a law that we find ridiculous does not seem to shine that light the way that it needs to be.

Many of you have said that you have no problems with your kids reading anything that is on here. That is great. I feel it means that while you are not sheltering your kids, it also means that you know you have set a good enough example that you can trust them to take what they read as an opinion, not written in stone. But at the same time, to some, it might be the same as turning an 8 year old loose on a porn site. I don't care who you are, no parent should be ok with that, and for a few people there is no difference.

The last thing I am going to say on this subject is the following.

I have noticed a giant uproar lately in opinions being defended and pushed onto others until it gets bloody. It pains me to see so many people that should be united with one another fighting like a bunch of middle schooled girls over who has the better clothes and make up. I enjoy coming here to see good dogs and talk with some great people, but at the same time there is so much drama that it makes it difficult to find the good stuff. I know I have been involved in some of the drama myself, but it was in defense of someone, not something.

Can't we all remember why we came to this sight in the first place and remember the age old saying "If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all"?
