Occasional rant No. 1:
Headline in DNA today — "Empower mothers to control children's sexual abuse"
"Control" as in, say, "control a child's access to the internet"? Meaning allow the child access to the internet but exercise control over the websites the child visits.
Is "control" the appropriate word in that headline? Shouldn't it have been written as "Empower mothers to prevent children's sexual abuse"?
