I agree about the effect of TV. TV was a major contributor to the degeneration of society. People saw a vast array of things that they did not even know about, and in a few years they came to NEED these things.
In order to get these things mom had to go to work resulting in a great reduction in parenting, which of course resulted in a greater degeneration.
As parents sought answers to problems with child rearing, two major psychological answers became popular.
The first was OUTLAWING CORPORAL PUNISHMENT. Spare the rod-spoil the child, many children were spoiled, and many many children were raised with no concern for consequences for bad behavior. Now with parents no longer able to discipline their kids it by default goes to the law enforcement and judicial system. What a surprise!
Soon after, another attempt to correct problems with children's behavior came along. It is the SELF ESTEEM movement. Now instead of everyone esteeming others better than themselves as the Bible tells us, and as we all really prefer, all the little Janes and Johnnies who are taught that they are the best, go to school and are not treated as their parents tell them that they should be treated. And we wonder why kids act out in worse and worse ways.
The solution is to REQUIRE PARENTS to DISCIPLINE THEIR KIDS
with consequences for both the offending kids AND parents. Eliminate the prosecution of parents who are simply performing the correct and needed discipline of their kids. In a very short time the need for law enforcement intervention in child abuse claims would be a tiny fraction of the current needs for law enforcement intervention in all of the various criminal activities of the young people.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
