You forget, schools have been feminizing males all this time as well. You know, you have to be more sensitive, accepting of all ‘lifestyles’, you can have sex with another guy, here’s a fisting kit, we want you to be safe (raw but actual), Title 9, yada, yada.
Not to mention second generation fatherless boys. I know we’ve always had fatherless kids here and there, but then at least you had family or at least a few brothers and sisters to keep you on your toes a little... oh, and real role models and teachers, principals, etc.. Even those who have their mom and dads (may be liberals, God bless ‘em), they’re so self-focused, the kid goes by the wayside and is on their own. These boys don’t know what being a young man ‘means’, courting someone, being a hubby or a dad; What does protecting, responsibility, reason, right and wrong ‘mean’?
These kids are lashing out, next week it could be a gun if not kept in check. What do you want to bet the kids parents say ‘It’s no big deal’, or ‘What did she do to ‘make’ them react’? These are the same parents crying on tv when their kids get shot down for murdering, raping, bullying someone later in life... ‘He was such a good kid, he was doing great, I saw no problems, they’re lying about him’, etc..
Have one kids don’t teach them respect, common courtesy, to use their heads, to focus on success, to have compassion for other human beings, or to respect anothers opinion and find out the reasons why they feel that way, to open their minds. Meanwhile mom and dad throw them expensive toys and clothes but nothing of substance... then wonder why they don’t respect them or go bad.
“I know we’ve always had fatherless kids here and there,”
Agree. It always amazes me how many people (even on FR) don’t know the difference between unlucky people and a sick culture.
