Parenting

I was on my way to work this morning and saw a young teen with his shorts so low he could barely walk, not unlike so many others with the same ailment. They look like old men with some walking impairment, something glued to the inside of their legs making it difficult to move properly, so WHY is it that parents allow the boys (and sometimes girls) to leave home to go to school with something hindering them from being able to walk, let alone run. I'm afraid if something were to frighten them and they had to run...well, we know who would win. If you have to use one of your hands to grab your pants or both, your running is bound to suffer.
Come on parents of the good ol USA, buck up take your control back, help your kids to stay alive in this crazy world. Don't set them up for failure. It's not just a fashion thing anymore, they look like clones that all have the same walk.
What's funny is that I thought this stupid look would be long gone shortly after it started but looking stupid is lasting much too long. It tells me one thing, parents are not being parents. You were not called to be your child's friend. Lead them in the way they should go and pull your own pants up please.
