The issue here is "world has changed" but it hasn't people are in America have moved from a push for rights into the 60's to a entitlement on everything and with responsibility etc. Merit, sacrifice working out problems on their own has long been forgotten.
It causes me a furrow brow when someone says sex education is needed because all kids have sex. So what we do is teach kids how to have sex instead of offering alternatives and/or ways to deflect it until the person can be responsible for their act. Kids view sex as if it were a hand shake hooking up on a continuum.
In past years and generation abstinence was a way of life. Getting to know a person working on the relationship preparing to support a family were essential and they solidified relationships
I missed the 60's because I married young, was working and going to college at night to build a life for my family. No time to drop out get high, protest because I was trying to survive.
I am praying that this youngest generation has taken stock of each successive generation since the baby boomers and has figured out what works and what doesn't work and what does

Rubicon, you are right, we are not serious enough.
Preacher, you are correct, we believe the most prominent voice.
Cat, your right, what would Jesus do.
Sage's, your right, only speak kind words.
Golfingnut, I am right, anything for a laugh.
I could go on for ever, but the point is, were all correct in our own way. This is an information web site with limited time and space for input of our opinions.
