It is so easy to point the finger and blame lazy parents. Rolls off the tongue so easily. Or to say, yeah, but I don't want to hear about that again.

Back in the real world, parents have a one window of influence amongst many others that they cannot control.

Our whole society is responsible for raising our kids.

Every time we play apologists for parasites like Waterhouse and Packer, WE are directly responsible for creating harm to kids.

in what universe?

I knew her quite well when I was a teenager and she was about 28. She's great, very genuine, with a fine sense of humour and good fun to be around. He's punching above his weight.

So she's a cougar?

Nah it wasn't like that.
 
Here's a couple of problems.

(1) the parents own gambling leads by example (if not, we wouldn't have a demand that supported the bucks sunk into advertising by gambling institutions). So, here's somebody considering the problem and making a responsible effort to face it, and your response is to suggest he's just too "lazy" to parent?
(2) while you may scare the **** out of a 7 year old (which is problematic in itself), how do you effectively communicate that to a teenager, considering the conflicting messages between you as a parent and glorified sports.

And using language like "get on the blower" and "put a couple of bets on" is loaded. It softens a very serious issue, making it all casual and manly (no pun intended). There is nothing casual nor manly about gambling IMHO.

I would at least acknowledge the concern, even if I didn't agree with the strategy, rather than dumping on him.

Now excuse me, I need to ask my well-drilled fearful kids to sit in the car while I hit the casino to have a little flutter on the tables....

..here's a thought, if you are worried about your seven year-old kid
getting on the blower to put a cpl bets on...take some responsibility as a parent and drum it
into there heads how bloody dumb it is whenever you see the ads.
Two can play at the subliminal brainwashing game, lazy parents are happy to blame society's ills...:-/

Did you see her in her 20s and 30s she was smoking hot 95.5 out of 100 in the rootabilty scale now days she's more 70-75.

Not that I really know, but I don't reckon she's a day over 60.

lol

It's a true scale.
You would of heard of the Scoville scale for how hot a chilli is? Well the rootabilty scale measures how hot a woman is and the likelihood the average joe like us would do her if given the chance.

It's a woman's decision, unless she makes the wrong decision then the guy makes the decision for her.

Sounds like a description of yourself Napper ;)

It's ok kiwi eagle it doesn't have the stigma it used to have. I think the fact the term beastiality has been replaced with interspieces erotica has helped your cause no end.

Anyway we are all friends here mate no one is going to judge you and your wooly ways.

You seem to know a fair bit about this stuff and have done your research, anything you'd like to share with the class ? ;)

Sorry to disappoint you mate but I'm in a traditional heterosexual relationship.
