What is wrong with the youth of America today?
A couple of days ago I was pulling out of a driveway making a left hand turn. A car came around a turn at about 70 mph (the speed limit was 35) and the driver began to speed up, honk the horn, and was laughing as she almost plowed into my car with my 5 children in it. Luckily the police were coming from the opposite direction, and immediately turned around and proceeded to pull her over. Now today while in a parking lot with a 4 way stop, where four cars were positioned a young "gentleman" was leaned over in his seat preoccupied with something, and the other 3 cars had passed through that had arrived at the same time. I waited a few seconds and began to pull off. I guess the person behind him had became agitated over waiting so long with no movement, and the boy sat up pulled off and realized that he was about to hit me and the car in the right lane turning right. He then proceeded to scream out the window "Fuc*ing Stupid Bit*hes". I stopped my car and said excuse me, and he took off! These are just two examples of the attitude of our younger generation. School is out, and it seems they are only getting worse not better. I can't take my children to the mall without them hearing F this and F that, B this and B that. Young men seem to be calling every woman a Bit*h these days. I am a safe driver, and my last accident was in 1996 and have a commercial drivers license with over a million safe driving miles under my belt, but I can't figure out what to do lately. They cut you off, drive out of control, curse worse than sailor's, and have no respect for anyone whom is older than them. Where has respect and courtesy gone? What can you do short of careing a bat and giving them some act right? I am at the point of not even leaving my house with my children, but short of that or violence what are older more respectful adults to do?
