When I taught younger kids, they weren't sexually active, but now I hear that in NYC, it's terrible - the things they do and what comes out of their mouths!

They're only children - this is directly from their home environment, and all of these groups yelling about the use of certain words, political correctness, etc. aren't even beginning to address the real issue. Where are our values? I know my kids, who I loved, and who were nice kids, if they found a dollar, they immediately kept it. I would never do that and they teased me about it, but I hope some of my old-fashioned values rubbed off on them.

They got to know my values really well and how much I loved them. I think they learned something from that, because they treated me so well. What was funny was that they thought I was "cool." Actually I very old school with my values.

I really do worry about them. Society is not in a good place right now and they don't have it easy.
