I agree. Lack of motivated parents. Single parent homes, for whatever reason have led to large scale apathy in children and parents. Many families are so small these days they don"t sit down to eat together with 2 parents, share the cooking, the dishes, the outdoor chores. My gut feeling is there is not that sense of value for "pitching in", respect for others, teamwork, traditional family values. Parents, sadly often Dads, are replaced by Govt. checks.
The sooner we wake up and put the 10 commandments, prayer back in public schools, and respect for traditional family values, maybe some of our social and economic problems might ease?

I agree that structure and working together on household chores, helping out around the family farm, or home, would have value in itself in making all children better citizens. Not just idling away their time in front of computers, video games, and a lack of direction from any parents. Unfortunately, I have seen this even in my own nieces and nephews. Sorry this got so long. Just my own $00.02 worth.
