Here is another fine story of government trying to impose themselves and take away the rights of the general public.

As some may know, I've been a dermatological assistant for several years and personally disagree with teenagers going to tanning beds, HOWEVER, it is still their right if their parents approve. Now, Texas state gov't wants to take away the parents right to allow their kids to do what the feel is ok. They want the parents to take their kids to a doctor and have them sign a consent to allow them to tan. A 3rd person! Not only that, but what doctor is going to say it's ok? Certainly not any of the doctors I work with.
Again...i'm against kids tanning, but MORE against the gov't taking away my right as a parent to say its ok for my child to do something.
