And how do we introduce that?
? Put it back in your schools. Middle school and JS/Senior high
Well I mean like
An action plan
Cause just getting it back into the institutions alone, that's like a mountain
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.
But such men don't exist much anymore, they're no longer needed this much
Can't your politicians make it into law? Gov mandates? Our Ministry of Education requires schools teach home ec
The two world wars connected families like nothing else could
It created such a vacuum that it made things unbearable for people like my mom
You don't need a war. Just politicians that want nation & family building
Yeah what I mean is
Typically children desire either one of those things more strongly, typically what they didn't get
Distance, if their parents clinged, and bonding, if their parents were cold
Freedom, if their parents were controlling
Control, if their parents were gone
This creates deep psychological insecurities
The freedom loving boomer generation was followed by a more nihilistic generation
And this nihilism created a huge vacuum, people miss deep bonds
Meaning etc.
I suspect, for example, that AntiFa are partially made up of emos that are too far gone right now
They resent the old because it rejected them
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
Yes, that's a known phenomenon, it's real
The adult child that still lives at home with their parents
Live with strangers/so called "friends" which they'll tear each other apart when they start to hate them
Yeah cause friendships typically don't last forever
And what starts them is often lost before they end
This also used to be very different
My grandma still sees her classmates
She's over 90
I saw one documentary where some young adult japanese are starting to live beside their parents' homes
Yep, this is a huge phenomenon in japan
They're a depressed and lost generation
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
Isn't it like America?
It is, in fact in Japan it's a bigger phenomenon than in the west, I think?
Because they live much more isolated lives, which makes the family the only valid emotional safety net
But it still addresses reconnecting family values. Both japan and america/western nations seem to become insanely individualistic
Yeah
