Via the AFP: US 13-year-olds are fairly conservative
If anything is surprising in Time’s feature, it is how normal and conservative — in a day of provocative music videos, widespread Internet access, and lurid cable television shows — today’s 13 year olds are.Nine out of ten of those polled on line by the magazine said their relationship with their parents is good or excellent, and only seven percent said their parents were too strict.
And 63 percent consider their religious faith at least somewhat important in their lives.
Interesting given that the prevailing view always seems to be that we are doomed as doomed can be because today’s youth ain’t what they used to be, or something like that.
