Re: Decline of Values?
When I was a youngster of about 11 or 12 a neighbor, Mr. Durning walked up to me and smacked me in the back of the head. Pretty hard too, and said "if I ever hear you say that word again, I'll give you double!". I had uttered a foul word on the basketball court and oops he heard it. What's the chances that would happen today? ZERO! Parents don't discipline their own children today let alone friends and neighbors children. It takes a village? There are no villages any longer! ( well there is a village but no children there but I digress) My point of course is that we as a society are not doing our job, everyone has a responsibility with regard to values. But hey I want to move to the villages so I guess I too am shirking my responsibilities by " running away" from children!?! ???
