I don't think people are any more or less immoral than they've ever been. It's just turned into an industry now to scare us into spending money, voting, and buying books.
Adults have a moral responsibility to raise their children right. Once those kids are adults, then the responsibility to live right is theirs. Depending on government, media, business, or society in general for moral direction is...well...immoral. It's up to us, and our churches. If our kids, not the other guy's, ours, are losing their "compass" (new buzz word), then it's up to us and instead of turning to government to fix things (gee, that always works well, doesn't it?) then we need to turn to our churches.
So, if one thinks that young folks are more immoral than ever before (which I do not), then one should blame themselves and their churches.
I agree they are no more or less immoral... by the way what does immoral really mean?
Plastering the "I don't give a [naughty word removed] what you think", "only I am important" and the Shallow fancies of teens attitudes with the label "Immoral" is well.... immoral....
The responsibility for the attitudes of kids is firstly with the parents, secondly with the teachers... (these are everyone from kindy to trainers, managers, bosses and media) and with the Government... Why the government.. they are the law makers.... they allow what is taught in school, they allow what is put in the media, they allow bosses and banks to rip the life out of family in an ever greater spriral to attain more wealth.
Children need supervision and guidence... if a parent is not there to do that properly between birth and 8 years old... what hope does the teen have?
