I agree Bethany1982, but this went on before the advent of Elvis. In the early part of the 20th, the young people shock their elders by dancing to close to each other and listening to ragtime music. Women, would start smoking, drinking and wearing pants at that time (that was a scandal to their Victorian elders). However, when they got married and had children, whatever the children were listening to they'd get shock (from generation to generation). My mom listened to the Beatles and Buddy Holly, but she was shocked when I was 11 and listening to Twisted Sister and other metal groups. I am afraid if and when I have children that whatever they listen to, I be mad.

I am also outraged over what's going in this society. The blame game has to stop and real responsibilty must be taken. I don't understand the parents saying "oh, they just kids, this will make them grow up". Another thing they say is "this build character". I doubt the kids would learn anything useful about these stupid shenanigans, only to behave even worse than before. I hate to see how it goes in 5, 10, 15 or 20 years
