A:That your (Linda's) daughter requires evaulation may be true, but that she requires patience, communication, and empathy is more important. That she listens to Marilyn Manson is a trivialty - I listen to all sorts of music and some of it is political, some of it is isn't, some of it condones violence, some of it condones peace.
