I can’t believe how messed up so many of the kids are at my daughters’ private christian school.

They get the right message at school, but they don’t from society. They have no moral compass but Hollywood.

We live in San Jose, California. Kids are generally screwed up here.

My kids are rebelling against Cali. One is in collegemin Texas, and my daughters are looking out of Cali for college also. One of my daughters is looking at conservative colleges in the south. She wants to visit Clemson and a few others this summer.

All the best for that I hope she finds a college that will promote the values and beliefs you hold dear. From what I hear these days so many colleges are continual partying and sex - women are objectified and disrespected - so much for women’s rights etc the worst colleges for this are liberal ones - so many Private Christian schools let in anyone as long as they pay the school fees or the mandated amount of non-Christians so they get government funding - a little leaven ruins the whole dough.

It's all over the magazines in the grocery store checkout line, at the movies, on TV, in popular music, the Internet, etc. Everything is about the depraved life, and nothing is about how to behave like a lady or gentleman.

That’s not a bad attitude to have. It’s what got me through my cesspool of a high school and on to college. Sometimes all you can do is write it off as a loss and move on. Better they not engage until they find themselves in a decent place.

The stumbling block is often the senior year. I’ve seen it all go to crap there because it’s a transition time and I think a kid is just more vulnerable trying to adjust. Alot of them are just worn out at the finish line and get hijacked from doing that they planned to do.
