[Closed] How have your kids changed/developed over the years?

spacemonkey · 2013-04-12T08:23:33Z

As the father of an awesome 2.5 yr old boy, I have my anxieties about how he's going to develop into adulthood due to schooling, peers, media and many of society's other ills etc (anti-social behaviour, unemployment blah blah). This isn't me being solely negative - it's more what I see as note of caution. I'm a believer in education begins at home - and thankfully so is his mum. So we're keen to do our bit and that includes supporting his moral/emotional/social development as well as his academic. But surely there are more negative influences around these days to test us? IMO the education system has been severely dumbed down, the level of literacy is often shocking, respect for self and others is at an all time low, responsibility and accountability have been replaced with laziness and self-entitlement etc. What's your take on this re kids you raised in recent years or those you're raising now?
