Interesting posts up here.......as the saying goes "education starts at home.....", that's TRUE, but the media especially TV have their share of blame if the kids of today are STUPID. TV and other media brainwash the kids into thinking what they and the govt. wants them to think and do. The kids don't want to have the "fatigue" of thinking freely with their own brains, there is TV that does that for them.....in the WRONG way of course. It's no wonder that things aren't changing much in society....history shows that in any society, things start to change if the young people have the strong desire to change them. Parents? One of their biggest faults is to leave this situtaton as it is....in some cases, parents actually foster TV brainwashing of their kids then complain about it as if they weren't part of it:)!
