I once camped with a family that brought their child. At first I was upset, so I talked to them about it. They said that the world is full of things that a child should be protected from. And it is full of things that need to be explained.

Parenting at Burning Man is no different from the rest of the world.

And Burning Man is the 5th largest city in Nevada for the week it exists. It has bad people. It has drug use and it has sex. If you know of a city in the US where that is not the case, then I would suggest you move there and raise your family in carefree bliss. Otherwise, you'll have to supervise your children every day...even at Burning Man.

And if you have a hangup about nudity, then I would agree, Burning Man is a poor place for you or your children. Personally, I would be more concerend about exposing my children to violence and the soul-crushing status quo.
I have a problem with people like you...you're no different than a crack dealer - youd' rather rationalize your behavior than do what's right for a child. You'd rather they see their parents and their friends whacked on drugs than protect them...you'd rather tell them spreading your ass for strangers is part of life then tell them to have some self esteem. You'd rather walk them by a tent with "blowjobs for free" than talk to them. You'd rather support an event that has adults fucking strangers in plain view, in front of children, than say "no".

The fact you're even around children makes me sick. You should be disemboweled.
