It was and still is a great school I think, but the language of the kids like Bill Cosby says is horrible. Whats the solution for this problem? I dont know.

The media, particularly in the area of entertainment have gone a long way to shaping our language and behavior. Children are more impressionable than most and more likely to emulate people they see on television (entertainers particularly). Parents really need to take a stand here and let their kids know who is and who isn't a good role model. We could blame the media, but they are only selling what people are buying. It comes down to parents who don't take responsibility for the information that their kids are exposed to.
I'm not a parent myself, but I believe it's a huge responsiblity that people often do not take seriously.
