Interesting.
My experience is the exact opposite. My friends are helicopters and my parents (and most of my childhood friends) were AWOL.
I was assuming that we needed more parental involvement in underprivileged children's lives. The lack thereof is a potential reason why we're seeing kids shoot football players in downtown San Francisco.
@VirginMaryCandle
I'm actually surprised at the split so far!
The "NO"s and "Hell No"s are winning my a margin.
Any more votes out there?
@Cosmichomicide
Second and third order consequences.
Is there a solution to mitigate that effect?
Deterrence vs Retribution
Would parents act any differently if they were held accountable?
Would society act differently if they saw parents struggle and still fail with dire consequences?
@Cosmichomicide
Then, wouldn't that be part of the story? The failure of society to assist parents that have done all they can but it wasn't enough.
We just had a 17 y/o shoot a 49rs football player in our downtown.
What is the problem that caused this shooting?
Maybe the child thought it was OK to use a gun to commit the crime?
Should society hold parents accountable?
We currently don't.
If I know I'm going into a battle and this will be the last few moments of my life, I want to hear this song: https://open.spotify.com/track/6GHzjN6TfdN9y9gdOa3MOU

Yes indeed.
Or, I see a really complex situation that I cannot resolve.
And, engaging in it requires defending a side. When the sides are all messy, no amount of reasoning will change the passionate hearts. And, maybe they don't need changing?

Wow.
Someday, maybe we'll be able to swing by and see it realtime.
Version 2 of the Pixel 8 car charger-holder is ready to print!
Too much engineering in this one.
But, I should be able to switch out a single part when a new model arrives.
Should probably also work for an iPhone when they convert to USB-C.
This was designed to mount to a Mercedes. But adapters could be made for any model out there. Just need to design those interfaces.
Almost done with version #2 of the Pixel 8 smartphone holder-charger for the car.
This will adapt to any case within a range of thicknesses.
This is a critical spec in our family because the wife has the same phone but a different case and we both drive that car.
And, I need to hardwire in the power for long trips. Wireless doesn't keep up with the power requirements of navigation and music streaming.

Nice! Some kayakers were going by while the pelicans were flying just over the water.
@redenigma
I certainly hope so.
I'm just going on the polls.
Maybe the polls will be really far off like in 2016?
