Being an older person in the community I would always have to say that society is becoming more self centered and the good old days were far better than today.
Which in a lot of cases is true. However, we must remember that the community has grown in both numbers and technology. Way back it always took mum an hour or two to cook tea. Whereas now days it only takes 5 minutes or so. because of the technological advances and microwaves. Subsequently, society is becoming attuned to the instant response for everything. Which in turn means that people become impatient when something does not happen instantly. This in my opinion is what causes most of the current problems within the community.
Furthermore, it is normally the youth who get the blame for all of society problems. However, we must first look ourselves as parents. It is us that set the example for our children to learn from. Consequently, it is the parents of children born over the past 3 to 4 decades that are nor responsible for the actions of the current community.
From my point of view kids are great people all they need is to have the correct example to follow and the world woud be a much better place.
