Is it a sign of a culture gone wild?
The latest Big Brother furore in Britain has highlighted an intolerance and vulgarity that is common in parts of Britain. The social decline in values and the insensitivities to others' feelings, whether racist or otherwise, is blatant in Britain today. It is not just a Jade Goody display (the girl who caused the racist problem in Big Brother), it is a British display. There are lots of Jade Goodys and John Baddys in Britain but why are they like that? I don't know and would appreciate comment.
It is extremely worrying in a modern society when a great amount of crimes police have to deal include:
-Binge drinking by teenagers and young adults (aged 12 up).
-Vandalism by young children (aged 8 up).
-Drug consumption by children: aged 13 up.
-Theft by children: aged 8 up.
- Abuse and bullying by children: aged 6 up.
-Assault by children on children/adults: aged 10 up.
-Assault by children (verbal/physical) on teachers: aged 10 up.
These are rough figures, but they are not far off; just Google British crime statistics.
Obviously I left out assaults by adults on children because, although they are extremely serious, it is the youth I am concerned about.
Why is the British youth out of hand?
Your insight please. Am I being too critical?
