texting and play games on puter and game console instead of communicating and having real fun and being kids instead of 7 year old brats who think they are owed everything .Teens selling there bodies for drugs or selling drugs to get what they should be working to get .

Dito on all the above. Would I like to turn back time? No, not really. I'm a better person today[so are most] than I was, because of what was back then. Missed most as a kid--- Pick up games of baseball in the street or any vacant lot. Any one can play & we kept score.
I don't say it often enough, so I shout out THANK YOU dr dave & malak & any one else that has served or is serving to protect this US of A. I know only too well, if it weren't for the military & police here at home, protecting my rights I would loose them. Again I salute all women & men protecting me here & abroad.
