It's the baby boomer generation that did the deed. We thought we knew how to raise our kids better than our parents raised us, (with a belt, or switch, or spoon, or whatever was handy to give us a whack) we would never hit our precious offspring, we'll reason with them, explain everything. We're the idiots, you don't reason with kids, you teach them through example and you do what you say. We got lazy as parents and the internet is now the babysitter, entertainer, movie channel or whatever the kids want to do, including porn, their kids.
