It is sad. As our society becomes more secular, what is there to focus on but self? Add to that an indulgent parenting style, is it any wonder some peoples’ first thoughts are for self gratification. IMO it is just a downward spiral that is very hard to overcome, but not impossible.

This summer was awash in game shows
And we will NEVER watch game shows. Only Jeopardy because it is challenging. I have been embarrassed for the Alphabets networks that they have resorted to game shows to fill in this summer. What a waste of time! I guess, since their seasons of real shows only run half as much a they used to, they run the reruns during the Spring and theres nothing left for summer. It serves them right for shortening the shows we still want to watch (which has dwindled down to nearly nothing)

Most Americans were born on third base and think they hit a triple.

Good article by Maureen Callahan. Thanks for posting. TV? It’s been 7 years. Movies? About 11 years. I do not miss either.

Most Americans were born on third base and think they hit a triple.What's worse is that they don't like 3rd base so they're stealing second.

Most Democratic voters are suffering from it--their minds failed to launch!

This summer was awash in game showsIt's very difficult to watch a game show these days. They only bring on contestants who are willing to act like complete morons/idiots and embarrass themselves terribly. Way too annoying - NO thanks !

I'm not confident about the future, not at all. In spite of Trumpian efforts, the US is not self-sufficient. Add to that, our population no longer has the skills, will, patriotism or experiences to persevere against more determined and hardened foes.
Wars happen when one side has nothing to lose. It is one of my concerns with John Bolton being in charge of anything. That guy keeps pushing countries that aren't on our friends list. I don't think a coalition of some of those countries being pushed to the brink is impossible or even unlikely.

Does the article ever get around to discussing what the headline suggests? I don’t go to the Posy, ever. They HATE me.

I'm pretty sure we as a nation are going thru a national "Lord of the Flies" transformation.
It will not end well.

In my experience, there is nobody less equipped — emotionally, in particular — to live in an adult world than a recent college graduate who grew up in an affluent suburb.
