General Discussion

the felon is one of the agents of social decay. No doubt. Although I have not read them, there have been a number of posts that identify some of the parents, and so there is anger and outrage aimed at them. I understand people being upset, but I'm hoping that no one seeks to somehow get "revenge."

Obviously, I know nothing about the parents, and will not speculate on them. But I know -- from my work, and that of family & friends since I retired -- that we have multi-generational families that are damaged from lacks of parenting skills. One cannot teach what they do not know. And while there isn't any easy cure, it is actually a heck of a lot cheaper to address this in the home, than wait until things go way out of control, including outside that home.
