Values In Modern Society

choose a value  (violence, peace, ect) at least 5 examples of stories or representations in modern society

  • Lacking of Moral Values
    • People today lack values and plain common courtesy.

    • Parents today are afraid to discipline their children for the fear of being accused of child abuse. 
      • http://tinyurl.com/7wmyolj ( Child abuse)
    • Their values are based, not on the character or moral values of people, but rather on their position or status in society or how much money they make. 
      • Wall Street (1987)
        • This Oliver Stone classic comes with the tag line, "greed is good" and that’s just what values the film reflects with its corrupt, money-hungry characters caught up in the 80′s ideal excesses.
    • There is too much technology and fantasy.
      •  Nurtures false courage to express the rude thoughts that they wouldn't otherwise express in person and not enough face to face communication and reality.
    • People have lost patience for one another because of fast paced life styles.
