It's a proven fact that the larger gap there is between the rich and the poor, the more crime will exist. And the US sure is high on the list. Add that with a larger population, and you've got a lot of crime going on.

 

Then another problem is that the American society has a need to put a blame on something, anything, if something goes wrong. I was watching the news (What a joke our media is. All of it.), and after some stupid incident (Can't remember what happened) they were talking about who is to pblame for such an incident? Well, of course the American people can't blame themselves, so we look at what kids like and blame that.

 

Meanwhile we turn a blind eye to child abuse and just plain bad parenting. They don't even have to hate their kids to be a bad parent, not telling the child the difference between right and wrong is helps pave a path to bad parenting.

 

Hell, I listen to black metal, the most aggressive music I can think of, and I play violent video games, but I'd never dream of killing someone. It was all because of what my parents taught me, do not kill, respect other people's lives, and think rationally.

 

It's such a shame we have parents out there that expect the government and the media to parent these children for them.

Well said, Dooz. My son is at the age to where he has a pretty good understanding of what is going on in the world around him, and we usually have talks about some of the stuff when he visits me. I don't expect my son to learn what's right and what's wrong from watching TV, or from his teachers, even. I do expect him to learn from my experiences that I have had in life, and those that his mother shares with him. I helped create him, and I enjoy every moment that I get trying to help him lead an enjoyable life, short term and long term.

I just hate how scared schools are whenever something stupid goes on, therefore they create stupid rules

 

like..at my school it's against rule to be on the campus (only if not in a classroom) at 3 PM only because some ppl lit firecrackers outside the library

 

for some stupid reason, you can't have any type of portable musik player with you, or else they confiscate it and your legal guardian has to pick it up (even if you're 18).

 

cell phones can only be used before and after school. Yet teachers always have theirs on even during class. They even have em on during a standardized test :spam2:.

 

if a student says the word bomb or makes any reference to an explosive outside of a history class, he/she must be reported
