I wonder what Rip Van Winkle would think if he awoke after many years of slumber and saw a world where biological mother-and-father households no longer exist, people who look into glass boxes like zombies, fingers that talk rather than a human mouth, a world without manners, teachers to blame rather than parents, anything goes rather than rules of logic, living for today rather than planning. Welcome to America in the 21st century, Rip. A world where the norm before your slumber doesn't exist. If you are old enough, the world has really changed. For the better? Go back to sleep Rip!
