@asmonet “People care less nowadays about who the neighbors think they are and more about who they actually are”. Lol——THAT’S exactly what’s wrong with a lot of young people today. “Me, me, me.” It’s more about oneself than gaining the respect of others. Because of that, a lot of young people these days don’t address strangers who are older with “Sir” or “Ma’am”, they don’t give up their seats to the elderly or a pregnant woman on the bus, they lack manners in public, they swear, they go to court dressed in jeans and a t-shirt, they go to job interviews with nose pins and a multitude of other body piercings, etc. “Who cares what others think of me, I can do what I want attitude”——that is exactly what is wrong with the world today. On the contrary my friend, we NEED shows that TEACH people how to act accordingly, with propriety, and with a social conscience and moral respectability. As the parent of young children, I see a lack of that on television today. Someday when you have kids of your own, you will understand what I mean. In the meantime, it’s easy to sit back and say “We don’t need shows that teach us moral behavior.” If you do have kids, then I’d find your comments here rather disturbing. :(
And as for my comments on South Park——I can see what I said actually made people stop and think. It certainly touched a nerve. As long as I know that, I have succeeded in delivering my message here——that decent folk in today’s ugly world are a rare breed indeed. (lol)
The thread is getting off-topic. I shall exit now, and will not re-visit. ;)
