I really think the decline of the family is the worst thing that can happen to society. The individualist nature. these times promote. is going to drive society... into the GREASE PIT! You know how the car cannot function unless all of its parts (at least the most crucial ones) are working? weeeLL, a peeerson cannot operate and live a full and satisfied life without those around them annnnd the close relationships in which one/they/we can experience a free exchange of energy and love!! Ahhh the frree exchange.
