Who in the heck has LOWERED EXPECTATIONS of their youths? Not slamming anyone, but that is almost the most ridiculous thing I have heard of. (its not but close).
I think that Most thinking adults have HIGH Expectations of their youths, teens. You know if you never set a goal you will hit it. PLEASE tell me who has lowered expectations of teens.
Some School teachers I think, (im not being funny) why can not some kids graduate and know how to answer a phone, fill in a job application, write a cover letter etc?
Dumbing down of american youth is something that some government groups want, that way the future generations are easily lead by the nose, told what and who to vote for. Keeping them in political power.
GO FIGHT RAISE YOUR EXPECTATIONS after all I as a 47 yr old guy need the youth to come to work and know how to put a good days effort in so I can pay them high scale.
