Crimes are increased, newspapers full of sad and terrible stories. Violent became a part of our daily life. Why?

We?
Most people aren't degenerates, believe it or not. If you're a miserable human being, know that you're in the minority.
It's also worth noting that crime is not increasing. It's decreasing.
The only thing that is increasing is the television news coverage of crime, and the reason that THAT is increasing is because people like you enjoy watching it, thus causing networks to do it more and more..
If you don't think you can set a good example for children, then it's important that you never reproduce.

Violence has always been a part of daily life, I hate to say. Pick up any history book and you will find accounts of wars and many instances of civil unrest. Read the Bible, especially the Old Testament. Very violent. We are a violent species. I don't think there's anything anyone can do to undo our nature. We can only learn to do things in moderation (as a whole, that is. Individuals can choose to completely abstain from things they view as destructive.)

Crimes have been on a downward trend over the past 10 years. News stories only put up headlines like that because there are only 2 things that catch human attention: 1)reproduction 2)death. Hide it from your kids.

I don't watch porn, but we have been known to have a drink or two and we go away every year to gamble.
Our daughter graduated from college with a 3.8 gpa. She's working in her field.....she's dating a really great guy.....she takes care of herself....we have a wonderful relationship with her.
Alcohol, gambling, porn are not the reason some children are messed up.
That's too easy.

I have done (and still sometimes do) bad things but I make sure to do them when my son is not around. He is now 18 and knows that I drink but didnt know that until he was about 16. It is hard to explain the difference of social drinking vs. alcoholism to a 5 year old...some things kids dont need to see.

Parents watching porn, gambling, and drinking, can and do have seperate lives apart from raising their children...they're still human beings who enjoy certain pleasures...none of those have anything to do with being a good example.

just live by God's rules and he will guide you and you children to a wonderful life........ don't shelter children from the harsh realities of life because they will grow up thinking life is all good and then they wont know how to deal with the bad things in life............ violence and crime are a part of life and children need to know that....... its not a good thing but its life.........as long as you set a good example for your children the bad examples will not matter because they will know right from wrong

morals are getting looser with each decade. everything envelope is being tested, people are told to be tolerant so the envelope pushers do whatever they want with and audience that wants it.
your question is that also parenthood is loosing its hold as parents put more stock into their careers, who they f u c k (sorry if you don't like that word based on your ?), and everything that is about "me".
you want to change society, yes it will take each person but people will have to start thinking about others, serving people, if you have kids live as if it is for the long run and invest time and effort and love into them more than work, career, etc... okay I could go on and on.

Because we threw God out of our lives and schools. If we don't want God anymore ,who is Love and good, why are we surprised if what is left is evil? Let's invite God back into our lifes so we can experience love, mercy and goodness again .

All these things have been around since the dawn of time. It is how human beings act.
