Yes and no. I’ll say this. I’ve never heard more F-bombs in public places
Than in the last 5-10 years. And you may say I notice it more because my kids are 9 and 11…but I look at some of these (mostly 20-30 something’s) sideways when they’re just spewing curse words in public and they just don’t even seem to care that kids are around
It WAS NOT like that when I was growing up. Know why? Because grown ups would either take that kid/young adult to their parents who’d lay a spanking or other harsh punishment or handle it themselves with adults. Now…parents aren’t allowed to discipline kids appropriately IMO.
The lack of respect of authority of adults is stunning. The abuse teachers get (often physical) without being able to defend themselves is ludicrous too
