“having grown up in Canada, the girls know their rights”

i suppose that's the one upside to this.

i don't believe in 'family values', or the idea that you have some kind of right to force your culture on your children. this is an infringement of the individual rights of the child and should be grounds for child protective services to take the kids away from their parents.
