Have we evolved into a narcissistic society, as the media have alleged? Do you think the importance of manners and etiquette is less essential? If you live in a country or regional area, is there more of a community spirit and comrade in your district? I really would love to hear your opinions on this issue so please do share your thoughts.

The law in this country is slack. Slap on the wrist isn't good enough when it comes to violent crimes. Parents aren't allowed to educate their decipline thier children with a slap when they're naughty because the law says its abuse but when the child hits out at the parents, they are being normal kids. This is not so. Kids today are getting away with everything and that's why we have stupid adults with no care in the world for others. They have no manners or respect for anyone. this doesn't go for all children, just the majority who aren't well trained.
