That is a LOT of people whose parents failed them. I can only imagine what my parents (members of the "greatest generation") and their peers would have done with this crew.
Children may be born with certain negative character inclinations -- but good parenting can help keep those in check. Somewhere along the line -- something went terribly wrong with these people. That doesn't excuse criminal behavior. It merely shows that classes on "parenting" should be part of a high school curriculum. Even if fifteen minutes a day was devoted to this (rather than some of the nonsense I remember from "homeroom period") -- it would give young people some basic knowledge before they're thrust into parenthood. Perhaps that would solve the issue of child neglect that results in the disasterous specimens of humanity pictured here.
There are still kids who grow up "normal" being exposed to the same influences at school. My daughter is one of them. So, I still think it has a lot to do with the parents.
I'm a "boomer" but I remember when the "hippies" first began making noise and liberal trends began appearing in newspapers. My parents (and the parents of almost everyone I knew in the neighborhood I grew up in) made it perfectly clear -- these "trends" were not for "us".
Oh you could have TRIED I suppose -- but trust me that generation was as tough as nails and once they made up their mind it was a done deal.
We were scared to death of our parents, our teachers, the other parents in the neighborhood, and any real authority figures.
We did what was expected of us --and grew up to be responsible citizens because truthfully, we were not given a choice to be anything other than responsible.
There were always consequences for unacceptable behavior. If our parents had any empathy for us -- it certainly wasn't on display. But the end result was that we did okay for ourselves and our children.
I was not quite as hard on my daughter as my parents were with me. But there were rules regarding behavior and appearance. And there were expectations regarding academic performance and keeping her room clean.
If a teacher's influence is messing up the way a parent wants their child to grow -- then it is the parent's obligation to remove that child from the sphere of that person's influence.

8 hrs of school with libtard teachers did this. The parents didn't have a chance

It always comes back to the parents.
Concise, the word of the day if you want someone to read it
I read the entire thing, it was easy. Took me less than one minute. Is reading comprehension difficult for you?
There's a reason THEY waited for the greatest generation to die off before launching CONVID.
Scary thought: Those youts might be a improvement, a step of from their parents lol.
On a serious note: I'm with ya.
