    Hold on, their parents let them watch it, I don't say blame the parents,
    but most of our youth stick to different morals, what folk thought of generations before is different from theirs, they idolize rappers, singers, actors, they have their new trends and styles,
    tho they aren't the best, it's the "now", it's what everyone else is doing,

    And plus, it's not JUST the media, there's so much more,

    like Britney Spears who might be pregnant again!

    I dunno, I feel like that might be an exaggerated stereotype of teenagers today. Doesn't seem quite fair.

    Is the media to be blamed for the decreasing values of our youth and the attempt to fit into its portrayal of humanity?

    Or are we, the person to blame, in our stupidity by blindly following other's misconceptions?

    Rant on.

    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    I saw a man on a stage SCREAM! Put me back in my cage!

    I live all my life on Planet Earth.

    Or how about de-evolution, self-excecution, NO SOLUTION!
