It's these dipshits' faults for not applying and using a tool that could prevent this. Because FUCKING DECENT PARENTING isn't enough apparently...
Absolutely wrong.
"fucking decent parenting" doesnt exist, at large, anymore.
Now days, and I know I am generalizing but, no parent was raised by a parent who was raised by a parent who qualified as a good parent!
It's all about society, "progress" (of what, i ask!), sensationalistic media and entertainment (which includes science(-fiction) and technology more than REALITY.) venues.
People always want to blame the universe for "influencing my child" but dont want to take responsibility to influence them, themselves.
Furthermore, the majority of people are brought to believe there is only "one right way" or that life is black and white, all or nothing.
As a result, you wind up with a lot more insanity than civilization wants to take responsibility for CREATING.
The solution?
Blame information, censor it and make sure no one can access it unless they have privileged authority.
Does it work?
I sure as hell dont think so.
But can we do without it?
Not after breeding this much "civilized" insanity, co-dependence (read: dominance/submission, NOT interdependence), and irresponsible finger pointing blame.
The current solution? Look back to nature and remember where we all came from, learn to coexist as our ancestors had to, for their very survival. Remember how we are all interrelated with the world through our interactions and ability to relate with our environment. Recognize the interdependent nature of the eco system, and learn how to be a part of it, rather than apart from it.
Nature breeds interdependence, Industry breeds dominance/submission.
Black and white? you are either a dominant or a submissive.
OR...
Interdependence? We're all working together to teach each other everything we can about respect, responsibility, humility, and compassion.
