Im still young, and maybe Im wrong, but this is my take on it...
The reason why kids these days for the most part are soo messed up and destined for Jail or worse is a combination of things.. one is definatley TV... I mean come on, primetime on most channels would give someone a coronary back then, and kids soak junk like that up at an early age like a sponge...
another thing is the cost of living is way higher than it was back then... people have to spend more and more of their time working just to support their children... man and wife work their ass off to provide things for their children they didnt have, in the process seeing less and less of each other, grow apart get deviorced, split the kids up, dead beat dads, single mothers raising children without a father figure, drugs, peer pressure, you get the idea... just a few reasons why the future of America is not as bright as most would like...
Like I said before, maybe Im wrong, what do I know, im a kid myself..:roll:
