When I was in the playground with my daughter, a group of teenagers entered the enclosure. They were smoking and let in a dog (bull terrier). We quickly left the scene. There is a lack of moral values among these teenagers. Smoking is a bad influence on small children and a bull terrier can be very dangerous to people. Why did they not know this? Are they not properly educated? Where do they learn what is right from wrong? The parents should instill these values. Do the parents know what is right from wrong? Perhaps the parents of these teenagers do not know what is right from wrong?
How can we break out of this vicious cycle? Well, if the parents cannot be relied upon, the schools must teach what is right from wrong. Once the morals are instilled into every child, the job can be passed back to the parents.
