PARENTING PAGE
Absentee-parenting: is an oxymoron and a contradiction. An adult must be present,
and involved to be considered a parent. Anyone can produce children, but not
everyone can be a good parent. As a society we license/certify individuals to provide
specialty functions (e.g., doctor, lawyer, therapist, realtor, etc.), maybe it's time we
license parents. Should we hold parents accountable when we can prove that poor
parenting, i.e. abuse, neglect, etc., has resulted in the creation of a sociopath?
