My theory is that nowadays kids are not raised by parents but rather by the institution (Government or Private). Due to high cost of living, two average incomes can barely make do so both parents are required to work in order to sustain the family. As a result, kids are 'handed over' to child care full time at a too early age. So they are raised (or herded in) rather than receiving a proper parental education on ethics, morals and all the important things that form a person's character at that early age.

The result - A generation of self entitled sociopaths who don't give a crap about anyone but themselves and that includes their own 'friends'.

When it's about children coming from lowlife backgrounds like parents who drink, take drugs and are on permanent government benefits..well that's just the result of no longer having an effective means of natural selection present in the species.
