What are your observations on society and where it’s headed?

Until last week when i ran into trouble with my mobility scooter breaking down while crossing a busy road, i too thought society had changed immensely in the way that no-one wants to get involved by helping out another person in fear of retribution. The way some parents raise their children has certainly changed because good manners and respect seem to be a thing of the past with most parents just not caring what their children are doing with their lives or how they treat people. However the 2 councilmen that came to my rescue by loading my scooter on their truck and taking us home has restored some of my faith in mankind. I suffer from chronic oesteo-arthritis and at the age of 49 it has restricted my life immensely. I have been made fun of and teased by many teenagers who just didnt have any respect instilled into them by their parents. I was always taught that good manners and respect starts at home and is shown by example. Society today has a lot of responsibility to bear too when it comes to these situations because nowadays noone trusts anyone and that is a total shame. I have raised five children, now all teenagers and i am proud to say at least my five have been taught good manners and respect for others. Thank you greatly to the men who came to my resuce it was greatly appreciated and to show my appreciation i rang their workplace and paid them a compliment through the department for which they worked. It was only good manners to do so.
