Also, kids didn’t shoot up schools until the 80’s. Why? Maybe its because nobody parents their children anymore. In the 1980’s more children started going to daycare and being raised by strangers vs being raised at home by family. And with that came permissive parenting like taking a 6 year old to a violent movie in the middle of the night.
Daycare would be a far more significant factor than a midnight movie. Kids are not getting enough time with their parents for their parents to help form their morals, so they get their morals elsewhere.
Kids used to play cops and robbers. Violent games are as old as mankind. War games, with simulated torture, are also as old as mankind.
A movie is not going to cause people to go out and commit mass murder.
Agree. A lot of parents today seem to have forgotten that they have another one's life in their hands once they have a child.
They go off to do what they want to do, when they want to do it - regardless of the safety of the child.
Case in point, the guy who was recently arrested at a casino, spending 4 hours there, while his child was strapped in a car seat in the car in the parking lot ...
Amen
BINGO!
Feminazism + the phoney “self esteem” movement + anti-father family courts + Gov’t agencies “for the children” (CPS, CSEU, etc) = Non-parenting “free ranging” of children.
First daylight bank robbery was in the 1860s. Why?
First carjackings, at least by that name, were in the 90s. Why?
Who knows? Something just seem to have never been thought of before, and then it becomes common.
