Dear editor,
When are we going to quit blaming the government for bullying, carnage on the highways, manslaughter, homeless people and unwanted pregnancy?
Do we honestly believe that you can legislate common sense and social behaviour?
Proper role models, parents who are there when kids need them and teachers who teach what we need our kids to learn, are essential parts of our children growing up with the necessary skills to be responsible citizens!
Let's get rid of social engineering, lackadaisical and selfish parenting and government babysitting.
It's time to take responsibility for current problems in our society. To continue this farce of irresponsibility is ruining our world.
