it’s the liberal idea that demanding personal responsibility is somehow an infringement on those rights that has bred the perfect storm of adolescent misguidance.
I have to agree with you there. I think personal responsibility started to disappear right about the time the “self esteem” movement started, where we began to treat children as fragile human beings who will shatter if they are told they are doing something wrong, rather than shaping them into adults who can handle criticism and accept responsibility for their actions.
Again, that goes back to parenting. Nobody says you have to subscribe to that way of thinking.
