The Epidemic of Mental Illness: Why?

[junecleaver]

My mother and I were discussing why there is so much "craziness" in the world today? Sure you hear more about it because of media that you didn't have 30 or 40 yrs ago but just look around your own town. Pedifiles, murders of children, abductions, just to name a few. Why so many more than even 20 or 30 yrs. ago?

The only common denominator we could really come up with was the food we eat. WTH are they putting in our food?

As usual, Butters your topic had nothing to do with the first papragraph you wrote. What does nicotine,"booze", and recreational drugs have to do with mental illness? Nothing.

When toddlers have no boundaries set, no consequences, they grow into adults with no boundaries, narcissistic personalities, that take no responsiblity for their actions. They have not developed coping skills, and placed in the real world, are unable to deal with the realities of adulthood.
