[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wraith: [QB] OK; I reckon I qualify as a member of 'today's generation' (born in '86) so here's my input. Basically I think it's right that kids get at least some exposure to things like swearing, violence etc. but ONLY if it is drilled into them that this stuff is bad and you shouldn't act like that in a civilised society. That is what I think is missing; most people my age have very little in the way of morals; they believe it is socially acceptable to swear, be violent etc. Sex also; when I was 13 there was a girl in my form who was basically a whore. She would (in school) accept money for performing sexual acts. Now I would be the first to say that I am unusual (although it is basically 'uncool' to have an IQ of above 70 where I am) but I just feel that society is suffering due to this and also the increased bureaucratisation(?) of pretty much everything. The huge number of ridiculous rules and 'mission statements' that our school has had to introduce due to government intervention (good example- our school recently had to prepare a statement on its 'racism policy' and what measures were in place to 'promote multiculturality'- understand my school has about 10 students from other ethnicities and there are no race problems at all that I've noticed) and to protect itself from being sued.
