In the past, teachers could expect that parents notified of misbehavior by their children would wallop them. Today's parents sue the school for invasion of privacy, violation of the First Amendment rights or some other guise of law used to justify delinquency. The long-past era of morality had front porches from which snoopy neighbors could step in if parents were asleep at the wheel. That era, when folks spoke aloud about morality without being labeled extremists, is gone and cannot be reinstated without violation of someone's rights. Today's morality is a facile test of political correctness, not natural law and its inviolate tenets.
Parents provide the trappings of an ideal childhood complete with materialism and hollow souls.
