How right you are, John.
I believe I brought my son up in that way and now it seems as though my grandson understands what is right and wrong and is developing a sense of responsibility and consideration for others.
I am sure we are not alone and that thousands of families still live by these lights. The problem is the thousands which do not. Unfortunately, although you did not mention it, the problem is exacerbated by the daily doses of soap, reality, game-show and inane celebrity television.
