In a nation where the Center for Disease Control says that 25% of the older girls have a sexually-transmittted disease and one baby out of 50 is abused or neglected, I believe that parents need to spend more 'quality time' with their children. A lot more.

I think the discussion is best left to the merits of the game and if it contributes to the desire to learn the guitar - or not. My point was, they aren't incompatible. You'll have to address sexually-transmitted disease transmission rates and the teen births on a different thread.
