Family. Either you benefit from it or you don’t. What you learn as you grow up determines your life. Either you are loved by a father and mother or you aren’t. Either you learn about deferred gratification or you don’t. Either you learn thrift or you don’t. Either you learn to value others or you don’t. The Left’s success in largely destroying the family guarantees an increasingly bleak future for more and more people. Will there come a breaking point for society? You tell me. But the new Elite Culture of the coastal wealthy has already created two Americas.
Your entire post is excellent, well said. I like to see kids stand on their own, separate from their parents. However, I like to see them respect and love their families. In the old days (and currently in other countries), it was expected that children would care for their elders as they grew feeble. Entire families of several generations would live together. My point? Regardless of how one lives, it's about family.
