If you did that, you'd need to point a finger at the parents - and THEIR parents, who brought up parents who are so lousy at parenting their own kids.
That would mean - pointing the finger at the vast majority of Villagers, since they ARE those grandparents who raised the generation that raised the current crop of teenagers.
And we can't have that. So instead, we blame the schools. Or we blame the "system." Or we blame the government, or we blame too many gun restrictions, not enough gun restrictions...
The problem is with the generations that created this toxic environment that the younger generation is now stuck living in.
