What parents?
The mother who works or the absent dad?
Most of the inner city black males learn lifestyle and ethics from their street corner pals. If you are strong you take, if you are weak you get a gun and become strong thereby.
NOw the curmudgeon litany:
When illegitimacy was a scandal, and unmarried cohabitation was a crime ( I remember a man going to jail for having a female roommate) and teen pregnancies were resolved by the girl visiting Aunt Lucy for a few months,
Now LISTEN.......
This stuff was non-existant.
The 2 great social experiments of the 60's - single parenting and acceptance of aberrant lifestyles, have brought their harvest.
