night life

Hi Folks,
For the last couple of years, I have been working on the streets of Wellington, New Zealand, helping to keep the city safe and have got to know the night life of the city. Right now, I am on holiday and have been visiting several married friends with younger children. And I am wondering: How do we bring up our kids, so that they will get out there, have a good time and maintain the standards that will make them good marriage partners and parents.

The thing that I thank my parents for is that they did not try to shield me from the realities of life and they encouraged me to make my own decisions from a very early age.

Believing in the kiss principle, I would love to come up with a four point plan.
