Ya know, it's very hard and seems tough to blame. For instance, when you look at the parents who aren't doing the right things we will jump to blame them and yes there's right in doing so, but now go farther in the tree and we have to blame their parents, etc, etc.... Can you guys see the trend? As we all realize in todays society things are getting much worse. When I was 16 in 1988 it was all about musci, booze, and having fun.... with a little fighting that wasn't always wanted but happened. As IAMCAPER states, noway whatsoever would ya back-yak the elders or you were getting back-handers in return! (I had my share) Or at least scared skinny ya would get one.... Now things are very disrespected and these newer generations are different than us. But as a society with ever growing knowledge and wisdom gained we need to stop figuring out who is to blame and say the "BUCK STOPS HERE" In doing so we might lose some in these small generation gaps but the payout for near future will be rewarding. All we can do is try. Alongside previous posts we need to spend time together. We as humans feed off each other for guidance, acceptance, and all that jazz which is totally lacking today. As I said you don't have to beat, scorn, or verbally abuse your children to have them turn sour. All they need for that is to feel unwanted or acknowledged. The worst thing you can do to anyone is ignore them. You guys try it next time you get in a tiffle with your wives/ladies (LOL it'll drive her bananas) None the less there is always time for improvements in society and somewhat its coming. An example is my little guys whos 11 had some little skits and sing alongts at his school and all the parents were invited. Well I must say I never seen anything like it, I was actually enlightened by it. They were doing skits and songs about how they are all equal and should care for one another and no matter what they wanna be in life its ok. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks as long as your happy with it and yourself, just reach out and grab it. Now this is the kinda thing we need to see more of... NO laughing at each other becasue one has cheap shoes or isn't dressed as well as others or lives in a shack, or isn't as good looking as some thinkl he/she should be, etc etc... RESPECT my friends, treat each and everyone as you would want to be treated is the key and society will grow and prosper. The old saying is "God made people incomplete, and the completeness is through each other!"
