You can thank the baby-boomer generation which embraced aristocratic morals and moral-liberalism for the changes in our society. The lawyers and bureaucrats are just filling the void left by the baby-boomer shirkers of personal responsibility.

The biggest problem with us boomers is that we grew up when our parents were reading Dr Spock and how the parent had to be a friend to the child instead of a parent. Although my parents weren't that way I can see how parents in the less rural parts of the country(urban, suburban)might get caught up in pop psychology. After 6th grade I don't ever recall any kid being spanked in school. For that matter I don't ever recall any kid being spanked anywhere. Up until that time we were still learning good manners and good citizenship.
