What ever happened to studying the old fashioned way?

I am right there with GaryR. I agree 100%! My nephew and niece live in a small town, and all those kids over there think of is, who is with who, can I get this girl, or that boy to date me.....it's all about who you're going out with. I see my nephew on FB and his sister, now 20, tells me he is getting four "F"s. He is so smart, but won't apply himself and all his mother wants to do is 'make deals' with him to get him to do his homework. Parents need to make their children accountable for their actions, and have consequences instead of making 'deals' with their children, as my sister does. You are right daddyrx.....students are using crutches to help them get through school, and I see the same thing as GaryR mentioned on Y/A with kids asking questions about their homework wanting others to do the work for them. And there are stupid people answering those questions. And these kids are our future? God help us!
