huffman is just an example of the modern era mindset that deluded parents, especially mothers, exercise in order to justify their wrongdoing. This belief that you have to do whatever is necessary to protect your child from the consequences of their actions is part and parcel of the destruction of society. If your kid goes out, gets drunk, drives, and then kills someone in an accident, you don't hide that child away for 48 hours so he/she can sober up before turning themselves in to avoid a negligent homicide charge. A good and decent parent would force that child to accept the consequences of their stinking thinking and learn something from it so they don't continue to be a cancer to society.
