55. I have to say no, because ultimately, the offspring is an adult and
free agent, and theoretically might be smart enough to oppose this goddam war.

But it does say something about how you don't have total control over what your grown children's opinions are that you'd think fundies would notice - they and other right wingers seem to believe that you can mold another person if you have them from childhood. Doesn't it bother them to realize that they are wrong? And that their children still have their own opinions?
