Yes. Adults have a major influence on the behavior of children. If we act like we don't care you get one result. If you act like you care you get another. I think we should act like we care.
What you said here indicates that parents alone are responsible for the result when many parents simply aren't capable of appropriate influence.

I am not sure how we disagree. I think children should abstain from sex.
My opinion is irrelevant. If I thought they should have sex, I sure as hell would want them armed. If I thought they shouldn't have sex, I still want them armed since we can't control their every move.

Also, I am not clear on where some of you draw the line? Are we all talking about children who may be 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17?
Children would fit into that category, yes. Under the age of 18, as far as I'm concerned.
