<P>Everybody has advice for me. I'll ask for when I need it. My reaction to the propriety of men in their 40s preying on teenage girls is explained in part by my experiences and attitudes as a parent. That doesn't go directly to how I raise my teenager, although it affects it, or would if I found that she was going around with a 40 year old that she met on the net. I do do need to justify my decisions about childreaering here and I will not do so. As one of my judges one said when someone (another judge, as it happens) was getting impertinent, This Conversation Is Terminated. Over and Out.
