I know. Damn, it is hard to be an older person and look at this stuff without having lived through the specific things that give it that context they have.

I do recognize that there is an entire generation of kids who have almost never seen something of note with their own eyes. They see everything through a 'viewfinder' of some kind.

This is a serious issue and I don't want to introduce humor into this, but I when I saw this illustration, it made me laugh, but at the same time, hit 100% home:

I also want to backtrack and don't want to compare what this kid did to shoplifting and petty vandalism, either. When I was a teenager, the concept of engaging in sexual relationships was somewhat unattainable to me (not for lack of desire or trying) but I would never have gone and bragged about it. Even a kid as stupid as me could recognize the damage that could do to someone else, never mind, cut off any future interactions due to being a blabbermouth.

Parents today have failed miserably in instilling the principles of gentlemanly and ladylike behaviors in their children. I am just astounded at how sexual morality has deteriorated in less than 50 years.
