For both

2019-10-09 15:07:14 UTC  

And how do we introduce that?

2019-10-09 15:07:40 UTC  

? Put it back in your schools. Middle school and JS/Senior high

2019-10-09 15:07:52 UTC  

Well I mean like

2019-10-09 15:07:54 UTC  

An action plan

2019-10-09 15:08:14 UTC  

Cause just getting it back into the institutions alone, that's like a mountain

2019-10-09 15:08:46 UTC  

The men who fought during wars and then came back to teach kids cause no one else could, they had nothing but family in mind, respect for the elderly, etc.

2019-10-09 15:09:07 UTC  

But such men don't exist much anymore, they're no longer needed this much

2019-10-09 15:09:31 UTC  

Can't your politicians make it into law? Gov mandates? Our Ministry of Education requires schools teach home ec

2019-10-09 15:09:37 UTC  

The two world wars connected families like nothing else could

2019-10-09 15:09:53 UTC  

It created such a vacuum that it made things unbearable for people like my mom

2019-10-09 15:10:01 UTC  

You don't need a war. Just politicians that want nation & family building

2019-10-09 15:10:09 UTC  

Yeah what I mean is

2019-10-09 15:10:40 UTC  

Typically children desire either one of those things more strongly, typically what they didn't get

2019-10-09 15:10:55 UTC  

Distance, if their parents clinged, and bonding, if their parents were cold

2019-10-09 15:11:31 UTC  

Freedom, if their parents were controlling

2019-10-09 15:11:41 UTC  

Control, if their parents were gone

2019-10-09 15:12:05 UTC  

This creates deep psychological insecurities

2019-10-09 15:12:50 UTC  

The freedom loving boomer generation was followed by a more nihilistic generation

2019-10-09 15:13:11 UTC  

And this nihilism created a huge vacuum, people miss deep bonds

2019-10-09 15:13:18 UTC  

Meaning etc.

2019-10-09 15:13:49 UTC  

Emos fall right into that space

2019-10-09 15:14:56 UTC  

I suspect, for example, that AntiFa are partially made up of emos that are too far gone right now

2019-10-09 15:15:10 UTC  

They resent the old because it rejected them

2019-10-09 15:17:40 UTC  

To be honest i dont know how to fully uncover the reasons why western societies lose family and value independence once they reach 18. I mean, some do kick their children out & are deatbeat parents. Some children esp leftists are bums in their mothers' basements (still?) or perhaps why they insist on taking a useless degree to get away from their family & live with others

2019-10-09 15:18:16 UTC  

Yes, that's a known phenomenon, it's real

2019-10-09 15:18:24 UTC  

The adult child that still lives at home with their parents

2019-10-09 15:18:39 UTC  

Live with strangers/so called "friends" which they'll tear each other apart when they start to hate them

2019-10-09 15:19:31 UTC  

Yeah cause friendships typically don't last forever

2019-10-09 15:19:47 UTC  

And what starts them is often lost before they end

2019-10-09 15:20:13 UTC  

This also used to be very different

2019-10-09 15:20:24 UTC  

My grandma still sees her classmates

2019-10-09 15:20:30 UTC  

She's over 90

2019-10-09 15:20:43 UTC  

I saw one documentary where some young adult japanese are starting to live beside their parents' homes

2019-10-09 15:21:11 UTC  

Yep, this is a huge phenomenon in japan

2019-10-09 15:21:19 UTC  

They're a depressed and lost generation

2019-10-09 15:21:21 UTC  

One to be closer to their parents (the rare ones that still value them) and two, to help learn how to rear their own children

2019-10-09 15:21:35 UTC  

Isn't it like America?

2019-10-09 15:21:50 UTC  

It is, in fact in Japan it's a bigger phenomenon than in the west, I think?

2019-10-09 15:22:26 UTC  

Because they live much more isolated lives, which makes the family the only valid emotional safety net

2019-10-09 15:23:13 UTC  

But it still addresses reconnecting family values. Both japan and america/western nations seem to become insanely individualistic
