I honestly think that this is a result of the esteem psychology approach being used in the public education system that protects kids from the consequences of their choices. Kids think that they can get away with anything and someone will always try to bail them out of trouble.

I worked within the school system for 13 years. I got out. I watched High School students disrespect, lie…and also saw parents back their “babies” even when presented with evidence.
Back in our day…we knew we would face consequences for our actions. For something as simple as skipping school. Now we have young adults finding it fun to kill another human. Like it is a video game, and if they hit their target they win a prize. Hoping these teens prize is a jail cell. They are sick.

Back when I was in school I had teachers that threw stuff at students when the weren't paying attention. They were actually encouraged to keep kids in line and on task.

These days, even if a teacher isn't a blatant leftie indoctrination machine, they're discouraged from doing anything that may challenge the kids frail little psyches.

Like I said, I worked in a school system for many years. I didn’t care if I was fired. I didn’t put up with the crap. I had one high school student get in my face and threaten me. I didn’t back down, and said bring it. He didn’t ”bring it”.
I just little by little grew tired of the disrespect and also watching far too many students be placated. Lord knows…we can’t hurt their “feelings”.

You were the type of teacher we looked back on fondly and respected. The kind that pushed us to be something.

I was just a substitute. But being at one high school for 13 years was both a blessing and a curse…lol.

We have lost respect in general. For our parents, for our government and for ourselves.

While the boomers bicker, statistics says otherwise.

U.S. - number of serious violent crimes by youth 2020 | Statista

In 2020, there were about 100,000 serious violent crimes committed by youths between the ages of 12 and 17 in the United States.

The only difference is that kids today post their stupid shit on social media for everyone to see.

What happened was absolutely horrendous though.

You sound a lot like my parents back in the 1960s. They thought the world was going to hell in a hand basket. They blamed it on The Rolling Stones, The Doors and The Beatles. These damn kids got no respectI tell ya! Lol

The lack of respect is obvious. As is a lack of accountability for one’s actions. It is an issue in our Country.
The teens involved in the murder of the man mentioned in the article obviously have no respect for life as they deliberately killed him. And laughed about it as they did it.

Those are the ones that raised the next generation. It's gone on, or down, from there to what we have now.

There have always been psycopathic killers in America and around the world. It would be a good idea to take measures to identify them early and to get them treatment and make damn sure they do not have access to guns or even automobiles. We definitely need more mental hospitals.

I wonder what the right wing comments about the January 6 riot and the promise of pardons for those who attacked the police might have to do with the attitudes you are pointing out.
