Yikes- parents lock up your kids!


I just watched the following youtube video with Lady Gaga with an adorable 15 year old girl and I can't figure out what to make of this. Is is exploitative? Is it an example of young women asserting their sexuality? Today's teenagers view Madonna as tame- how far will they push the envelope?
Parents must be confused. The most important thing for parents is for them to become very cyber savvy. Parents need to know what their children are looking at on the internet. They can't afford to be naive.
Watch TV with your children as well as spend some time letting them show you what interests them online. Most children want to connect with their parents. It's one of the best antidotes to the parts of culture that make us scared.
