Aren't laws made according to someone's morals?

The thread (OP) is about prostitution, not politicians. I directed my responses accordingly.

A moral is a "motivation based on ideas of right and wrong".

These are not my personal morals, but rather, I believe, reasonable assumptions. I don't know of any parent who would want their child to aspire to become a prostitute, hence my question. Does that mean they're not out there? I'm not impying that, only that I don't know of any. I think it's reasonable to think that parents have their childrens' best interest in mind and I also believe that this includes not wanting their children to grow up and become prostitutes.

The issue regarding "drinking age" should have been clearly seen as strictly addressing "making something illegal in order to discourage children" to which I even included Tchocky's specific comment.
What's up wit dat?
