I totally agree with you. My daughter is 16 and I can't imagine it. Heck, I had to stay with my Grandparents for a while when I was 25 because we were in the process of moving. I met my future husband and we began dating. My Grandpa waited up for me at night and when we pulled up in the drive way he hit the outside lights. I came in, gave him a hug and headed for bed. It was old fashioned in a way, but I will always respect him for that. I didn't have a Dad at the time and he was watching out for me. I am glad I had that instead of him offering to allow my boyfriend to move in. By the way, my husband grew to love my Grandpa too and always had respect for him for setting rules. We talk about those times with a lot of affection.
Its sad that these young girls had no one setting limits for them when they should have. It isn't always the popular choice, but how different these girls lives would have been with some standards and rules that would have helped keep them safe.
