Really? No, I don't think so. We live in a backwards society that likes to breakdown the family, brainwash our citizens with TV, that likes to indoctrinate our children into their schools that will not adequately prepare them for their future. And why? The bottom line is money. If something is profitable, then to hell with everything else. Of course it would be wonderful for our youth to finish school, get an education, start their lives out right but who is going to influence their lives in a meaningful way when their parents are at work for hours and hours trying to survive and teens are raising themselves. Its almost like, which came first the chicken or the egg? Which problem instigated the other? It gives me a headache! Geez, sorry to be so fired up out the gate.
