I feel that the battle is kind of lost when you have ventured into this level of detail. If you have to discuss "legitimate way to give permission" to a child it has reached outside the realms of parenting common sense. I think lot of these issues tie-in very closely to the fact that government is trying to control our lives with the assumption that government knows better than us. As an Indian immigrant to India I am extremely concerned to about my child here because I simply can not exercise my inherited parenting judgement anymore. One thing liberty loving individuals could do here is learn a thing or two from NRA and completely deny any legislative space to the law makers on this issue. These small bills will not deter the government from what they are already doing.
