So what you are saying that if your taste in clothing and music and
movies doesn't fit in with society's "norm" then you are harming your
children?  And that different musical/fa****on sense is on par with
doing drugs?

Seems to me that showing your children that individuality in taste is
OK, and you are teaching them tolerance and showing by example the
ability to think for themself and make their own decisions about what
is interesting or good.
