There are several reasons the youth of today is fucked up.
1) Welfare. If a woman can get knocked up and get more and more government money for each kid she pops out, she'll do it if she's too stupid to make money any other way and if she's fallen into the myth that her only value in this world is measured by how many males want to shove their penises inside her. The main downside to this is that the children grow up without a father because the mother doesn't need his income to survive. His child support (if he pays it) and government money is enough so that she doesn't have to hold a real job.
2) Rap music. I would think this was bullshit if I didn't see it firsthand. I watched that music transform my sister. She and I were raised very similarly and I didn't listen to that crap. That music glorifies and encourages sexual promiscuity and substance abuse and she definitely started participating in those things while I didn't.
3) Fear of spanking. I know it sucked to get spanked as a kid, but when children are very young, the pain consequence is all that really works. Spankings should be restricted to butts where the body is designed to withstand such an injury. Grounding your child to their room where they have a TV and video games isn't really a punishment.
4) Parents wanting to be friends. I think most parents these days don't seem to realize that their job is to be a PARENT, not a friend. Friendship with your children shouldn't happen until after they are grown up and moved out. Your job is to raise them to be a contributing member of society, not a worthless drain on it. It's downright CHILD ABUSE when parents give in to their kids' whining and teach them that if they cry and whine and beg, they'll get what they want. How does that help them later in life? They need to learn that if they want something, they need to EARN it. Every single day is a learning experience for a child and every experience shapes how they'll deal with situations as an adult.

Today, about 24 million American children go to bed each night in a home lacking a father. This is unacceptable and creates a climate that leaves children without the love and affirmation they need — too often leading to reckless and dangerous behavior. In fact, 70% of juvenile murderers grew up in father-absent homes.
To chalk up this recent spike in juvenile crime to a lack of government money is a tired and increasingly meritless argument.
Kids need both parents for their best chance to avoid crime.
