What has happened is a loss of faith in traditional institutions such as family and church. Only when one gets to extreme old age and one's contemporaries are dying daily does one see the value in real relationships. But even then many simply want escape. Morphine anyone?

Hear, hear. Very true. And when you and your 5 siblings, who between you have had one child, reach old age and realize you are really on your own....
BTW, I'm nowhere close to old age. I'm just watching a lot of relatives. Fortunately, there's a lot of us.
