Which is one of the reasons I homeschool the second one!! First one came home talking about the kids on the bus looking at porn on their phones during the ride home. I think my jaw was dropped for most of middle school. Luckily, she is fine today. In college, on sorority governing council, looking at med school. But, there was a time when I thought this is INSANE.

Here are some of the remarks that stuck with me from my daughter who lettered in soccer and was captain of the team.

"Duh, mom, Friday night is blow job night at the movie theater." That was a great moment.

"Oh, so-and-so is pregnant doesn't know the father." That girl lost her soccer scholarship--full ride.

"Mom, my Gawd, there are like five meth labs 10 minutes away."

And, this is a rural, all-American school district. We still have tractor day where the kids can drive the tractors to school.

I totally agree. But, don't forget how to teach our girls to say "NO!" and mean it. Our girls desperately need to learn how to be assertive when it comes to their right to be taken seriously and not taken advantage of.


Sorry, this is my soapbox topic.
