as someone who walked all over my parents from the age of 12 on, i have zero interest in being any kind of friend to any kids i have till they're at least in their mid 20's. all i want before that is for them to respect the rules i make and fear the consequences of going against the rules enough to not do it. between the euphoria of youth and the bat-shit crazy hormones running through adolescence and the Ass media and internet out there, i feel the need to protect them from themselves even more than the rest of the world. sure, people do plenty of sketchy and foolish things their whole lives, but once you make it to your early 20's, there is at least an inkling of self preservation and awareness of consequences that isn't there when you're at the end of the teens.
