Pamela's writing often flutters to her parents' reactions. In the face of her insatiable hunger for rock artists and hip ideology, her parents are clearly a strong base. They leave their indelible mark in the form of a conscience, values, and an awareness of God. This is evident in how Pamela ironically holds on to her virginity for as long as possible even while in the midst of unvirginal acts. In contrast to the other GTOs, she is relatively conservative in both appearance and level of drug-taking. Lady Schick and personal hygiene is approved by her dad early on. Unlike many of her peers, her middle class upbringing keeps her head on her shoulders. She thinks long and hard before smoking pot, and never allows herself to sink into drug abuse. She can't stand watching other GTOs shooting heroin.
