I'm not sure they should even send the kids to the locker rooms. Let them watch the adults get arrested and let them see how that behavior is rewarded. People were much more civilized when you went to school.

Where did we go wrong? Well now.........that's an open ended question. <gggg> IMHO, "Self government doesn't work without self discipline". Somewhere along the way we as a society lost our discipline. Why it that? Could it be we're trying to govern by feelings and not results? Could it be we're trying to make everybody a victim of something? Could it be we punish achievement and reward failure? Could it be we don't hold people accountable for their actions? Could it be we want the government to fix everything? Could it be we want a safety net so there is no risk in life?
