It's a great point, Shasown. I think we should raise them to take the positives from wherever they find them. If they want to be a footballer then I don't see a problem with them being inspired by a footballer... but only where football is concerned... and let their moralistic stance come from good parenting. I'm a fan of Hunter S. Thompson, but only his writing. I'm not going to blow my brains out because he did. Kids don't need role models, they need guidence and to learn the meaning of right and wrong so that they can decide what path to walk, rather than blindly following someone that they don't actually know.
