How fast does society go downhill?
I was a HS freshman in '85. One of the seniors got pregnant and it was a very hush-hush type thing. She dropped out, if I remember right.
By the time I was a senior ('89), around a dozen of the freshman class were pregnant. It was no big deal.

I graduated in '87 from a Catholic high school (all boys, so no pregnancy stories, hee hee). The worst thing that ever happened then was a kid got hauled off to jail for dealing coke. JUST ONE KID. It was the talk of the school. We generally knew who the handful of potheads were, but that's as far as it went. If kids got in a fight they could look forward to having it broken up by the principal, who usually did so by beating them into submission. THEN he sent them to the dean, who just happened to be a USMC Major.
We're dinosaurs today. Old farts. I'm 33 and it scares the hell out of me.
