Answer 1

The problem with young people today is that they are not allowed to be children. We have taken away even the pretext of innocence. We no longer protect them from sexuality, vulgarity, violence or any other obscenities. They are more likey to play with slutty looking dolls and have fanticies about dressing sexy and having boyfriends than playing with baby dolls and having fantacies about being wives and mothers.

Heck, they came out with a remake of "Miracle on 34th Street" and a "Chipmonks" movie.

Both are rated PG!!!

When we do not allow children to be children we destroy the basis for idealism that would normally lead kids to become alturestic. Now Jamie Lynn Spears gets pregnant at 16, the star of a Nickelodeon kids show and were is the outrage? There is none. Her mom seems Ok with it. Nickelodeon hasn't fired her and are in fact now planning a special on it. No one seem to care.

We are being told that she has been sexually active since she was 12 years old and lots of girls are. How sad!

What can be done about it? I do not know how one puts the gennie back into the bottle.

Merry Christmas!

Answer 2

Yes, those changes are mainly a result of both parents working, less family life, computer games, TV, less personal interaction with other people. There is also the single parent factory where children have only one role model to follow.
The causes are not simple and the results are callousness, indifference, isolation, addiction of various sorts, gang associations to find companionship and "Belonging".

All these things are negative. Not to say the everyone growing up in the present will take a bad path or be psychologically damaged. But these effects are present, though supressed. There is also the current factor of blaming anything and everything except an individual when things go bad. Abuse, single parent, neglect, all sort of excuses are made for bad or erratic behavior. As long as there is no repsonsibility for one's actions, there will be indifference. As long as there is not family there will be callousness.

There is no obligation for young people to be involved in social work. The willingness to become engaged is based on the values and teaching of parents and immediate relatives. As the twig is bent - so grows the tree.

Answer 3

Actually social work is a growing profession and more and more young people are dedicated to it. There are now close to 500 BSW programs in social work and close to 150 MSW programs (that is almost double in 10-15 years). Also the actual number of students is up.
