Parents are role models, in good or in evil. So, most of time children follow in the footsteps of their biological parents, teachers...and these days, it is a pity that media:electronic and audio-visual tend to be taken as a substitute to parental socio-moral guidance. Let alone the fact that children or youths are allowed any type of non sense under the sacro-sanct and erronous protection against abuse. But there must be a clear cut between parental positive influence and socio-familial anarchy. Finally the point may be: who is showing whom directions in this life? I will always opt for the old school of social education, but at the same time trying to be flexible, and comprehensible of the new generation. Just a matter of trying to srike the right balance. This may be easy talk....i am really baffled by the fact that parents seem to have "thrown the towel in". SOME OF THE PARENTS MAY FIND THEMSELVES BEING CHARGED FOR CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE. Look at the picture and imagine the worst possible scenario.
