Is THAT what you garnered by my post? Talk about subjective....

If, by the age of 18, a kid doesn't know that they need to be responsible by reading fine print of a contract before signing one, then the parents FAILED. What I hear you saying is that parents shouldn't HAVE to be responsible...that everyone else should just be trustworthy and honorable and while that would be nice, it's a fools dream to believe that possible.
