My parents were deeply religious and preached but as a 16 yr old boy I just wanted to get it on.
Parenting is difficult enough without the government stepping in and telling parents how to parent. Parents should instinctively know the difference between what is right and what is wrong. It is important for the parent to instill a sense of discipline with their children early on so that they too know that difference and live by it. Leaving that responsibility to teachers and others is irresponsible parental behavior. Children should possess this knowledge before they even get to school and kindergarten. That is why christian traditional values and principles is so important to the development of any child so that they will be able to be independent and self reliant and successful in their adult life.
Of course you did, as do most girls too. But think of how far you would have went without those guidelines and boundaries.
