Students are told that they live in a rapidly changing uncertain world where knowledge today will be obsolete by tomorrow and that they will be faced with more pressures than any generation before. Put all that together and you have created a pressure cooker ready to explode-especially for students who haven't even learned to read, write or express themselves effectively. Life is a phoney scene for our youth. They are presented with a battery of phoney human rights, but they are not allowed to discriminate or act out or even show emotions. Life for our youth is a void they have no obligations, no responsibilities, no chores, no work, and most importantly they have no moral guidelines by which to live-they only have life without values in what has become a playschool without purpose.
Wrongdoing is rationalized and always blamed on external factors.
So our youth is being turned into a whole subculture of conforming nonconformists without traditional moral values. In such a moral vacuum and without having to face serious punishment, it's easy to see how a disgruntled student might plan a cold-blooded act of murder. Our schools today lack discipline, direction, and purpose. They must return to a schedule of sequential learning, directed by the teacher. Students must be encouraged to compete and achieve.
