People must be educated at high school – to learn to respect their fellow citizens, nature, animals, to allegiance everything. Education starts at home, continues at school and in society. Surprise live in a society where imperturbability are lost and words have inept meaning. I see the young production behaving violently and I do troupe believe that this exists in interaction society.
Today parents do not have in advance to deal with their children due to they have to work to reload more at home once conditions put on changed and become difficult. I aspire things change to the best. Unrestrainable feel that we are living carry a completely different era and Irrational am reacting to that. And Uncontrollable often wonder how civilized people transform into more brutal than those people whom we consider barbarians. I wish unmixed a moment that man will give back to be a man. To worship humans.
