Society

[Iaing]

Let's have your thoughts about what is wrong with society in the UK ( if indeed you think there is anything wrong!)

It's been very well behaved on here this weekend so let's keep it that way even though this might be an emotive subject!

Over to you...

 

[Foxholer]

Too much moderation.

Or maybe not enough moderation.

Note the lack of capital 'M'.

 

[Keeno]

Lack of responsibility. Its everyone else's fault. Too many to mention.

The Internet, texting etc,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, especially for children is a very cruel place. Lets bullies keep going 24/7. Growing up, any hassles at school died down over night or over weekends. Now social media keeps it brewing and puts more pressure on everyone

"Human Rights" - which seem to have been turned into "letting crimimals and scum get away with whatever they want"

We seem to have created a very selfish society, even the adverts tell you to buy something 'because you are worth it.

This is the first generation where kids seem to have lost their parents day to day influence.
Both parents working, single parents no time to spend with the kids. Kids spending most of their lives in their bedrooms.
Parents expect others such as teachers to teach their kids social skills. Teenagers may be brilliant at using electronic devices but I am staggered by how many do not even know how to handle such things as a knife and fork or hold a decent conversation with an adult.
Not preaching just stating.

The blame culture within society!

Also the benefits system, and the useless oaths its created.

 

[SocketRocket]

The inability to understand there is no such thing as a free meal.

The i'm allright jack attitude that is everywhere. As long as it dont affect me I dont give a stuff and as the above post says the benefits system

 

[JustOne]

The people.

 

[SocketRocket]

The people.

Which people? All of them or just the ones the Guardian dont approve of.

The people who don't care or should know better , people with no respect ,people who park in my space , people who deal or take drugs , people who say its breaching their human rights when being punished for their horrible crimes. speeling wrongly is haenis , also spacing , lack of capitals , paragraphs , to many coma's ect. imho hanging offences.:lol::rofl:

 

[Kellfire]

Society in general is fine.

The Information Age just makes us more aware of those whose values we disagree with.
