Talking to many young people today, as I have, they don't think life is a gift or even fragile. Death and violence is nothing to them. I think many of them have no conscience or heart...and obviously no brains. They really do not imagine themselves living to be adults let alone elderly adults. I have talked with my nephews who are aged 18-28 yrs old and while all but one of them is very loving and caring and generous and hardworking, they agree with what I am saying about this. And my daughter, the special ed teacher, who teaches emotionally disturbed boys aged 10-14, she tells me that some kids are actually born without emotions, basic emotions!! I had always thought that babies were born good and were mostly a product of their enviornments, whether parents or neighborhoods or economics, education, etc. Plus when kids are constantly seeing on tv, movies, internet, at school, at home, everywhere! the terrible violence!! Kids being shot. Parents in jail. Grandparents in prison even. Knifings. Just sex, violent sex is part of a norm with them from what I gather!! I hate the myspace stuff so much.
