Young People Today

In the year 2013, there are vast reasons for people to be confused. Technology has made people unable to socialize other than on the Internet. People get online and expose their most personal things. Who wants to know who is doing who and how? Yet all these personal and disgusting things get top play.
The young people don’t seem to know the difference between good and bad. Vampires are good. One side of a woman’s head shaved is good. Pink or green or blue hair is good. Tattoos all over a woman’s body are good. Piercings are good. The raggedy look is good. Showing the top part of your butt to the crack is good, for both males and females. Saying curse words and calling each other curse words is normal.
Watching how other people live every day on reality TV shows is the most popular form of entertainment. Housewives, preachers’ wives, doctors’ wives, low-income, low-education–all of them can become a reality TV star.
Lots of people are on meds to get up, to lay down, to be happy, and so on, with all the types of side effects. Then there are illegal drugs that are killing off all ages. And if that’s not enough, people are doing bath salts, smoking fake marijuana and all types of other craziness.
The children are watching and don’t know what to say or do. Is there any wonder that people are homeless? Confusion + no money + no help = homelessness.
