Questions

At what point did a drug addict or alcoholic stop checking into the hospital to dry out and begin entering a treatment facility for rehab?

When did raising kids become parenting?

When did a teacher become an educator, or a garbageman become a sanitation worker, or public servants become public employees?

When did cop shows, doctor shows, westerns, and sitcoms get overtaken by white trash programming like reality TV and talk shows?

When did tattoos go from being something that Marines get in Singapore to what any 18 year old twit could get at the local strip mall?

When did working hard, saving money, and being responsible go out of fashion?

I don't have the answers to any of these, but my gut tells me it's somehow the fault of the hippies.

When the generation before forgot to teach personal responsibility and pride to their kids, and made them too afraid of conflict to make moral decisions and judgments that require defending ones' own beliefs, IMHO
