There is a trend in child-rearing that I find abhorrent: "Whatever the kids want to do is fine."

Well, I think that's wrong.

It's a crapshoot. You're dealing with kids, 17 to 21 years old. That's a lot of pressure. Think of all the pressure -- and the money that is bet on it, legally and illegally. It's amazing.

I think that the FDA has not been able to catch some of these things as quickly as I expect them to catch and so we’re going to be doing a complete review of FDA operations.
