LETTER: Actions of teens around rodeo in Surrey were disturbing

The Editor,

Re: "Rodeo reveals who can parent," the Now, May 22.

Thank you, Beau Simpson, for your column. My family lives in Cloverdale and it was disturbing to witness the actions of many youth as they walked to and from the rodeo grounds - provocative dress included.

As a parent of three teenagers, I want to encourage all the other parents out there. Parenting is hard work, but we can't give up! We have been given an incredible calling in raising Canada's next generation and we can do better.

Thank you to Mr. Simpson for highlighting this important issue.
