When I say faith.. I mean faith in their way of life, knowing and doing things they are not supposed to be doing at certain age (young)... No respect for others and themselves in the way they live their lives.......... An so many more..... I mean it's so much different now unlike the way it used to be back in my days.....

@Deamdizzy I can see many differences and I think "smartness" is one of those changes in younger people. They have computers, I had a slinky, they play in mindcraft, I played in the tree house, changes. The world itself has changed.
Still I think people are always still people and I do know that crazy things happened in the fifties, even in the roaring twenties. I agree with you though some things that seem lost need to be revived even if not in the exact same way. Thankfully history has a way of repeating itself? There needs to be hope or if not, hope of hope for the younger children in these days we live in.

The previous generation was known as "Generation X." This generation is known more as "Generation Why" (unless we've already gotten 'tired' of it all and gone on to "Generation Zzzzzzzzz
").
As 'Generation Why,' we seek to know beyond "because God/Mommy/Daddy/Teacher said so" and stretch into the 'Causes of the Effects.' Sure, our questions often evolve from the base of 'why DOES G/M/D/T say so?'--sort of assuming they all 'exist.'
But we are uncomfortable with a fact or a belief if we do not know 'why' we have that knowledge. 'Why' is the rock our faith-minds rest upon. (Even if "no reason" is the Cause we find, that is steady enough to rest on!)
