There's not just pride and shame, moral and immoral; too black and white. If one is going to deal in dichotomies (and one's children) there are good career choices and better career choices.

I wouldn't have a moral issue with telling others my child's choice (if it were their business or mine to be telling others my children's business) anymore than I would whether they were mentally ill, handicapped, sexually oriented differently than myself, etc.

I think like AAAAA, I wouldn't want a business in my neighborhood because of the strangers and traffic and, if it wasn't a type of business I frequented or had a majority of clients I was comfortable with, I especially wouldn't want it there.

Prostitution doesn't "help" anything. It's not a moral thing for me but the social problems the business causes/would cause, with or without legalization, does not make it something I would support. If the prostitute went to the client's home, that would be fine with me. I support liquor stores because I use beer/wine but I do not want them in my immediate neighborhood because not everyone who buys beer/wine acts responsibly when they use it; I don't want people loud, loitering, or drunk around my home. However, I don't use prostitutes so I do not support them, in my neighborhood or not. But if you want to support and use prostitutes, be my guest.
