Morals & Values among Indians is Degenerating

If health is gone, something is gone.

But if character is gone, everything is gone.

Teaching moral values is very necessary for the all-round development of a person. It includes discipline, manners and etiquette, behavior, control over oneself, politeness, strength, patriotism, love and care for each other. It also includes speaking truth, no stealing, becoming a good citizen. Moral values are also necessary for developing healthy and friendly relations with everyone. Loss of moral values is a direct loss of the country. A child must be given moral education at an early stage. He must be taught the importance of moral, ethical and family values.

By Family Values, we mean to have good thoughts, good intentions and good deeds, to love and to care for those whom we are close to and are part of our groups or communities, like parents and other family members and friends too. They must learn to treat others with the same set of values with which they wish to be treated. Ethical values define a set of principles of right conduct. A child must learn moral values in school, many of the schools teach the students to develop their character through books, moral stories, essays, plays.

An easy and one of the best ways to impart moral set of values and principles in a child. The child must be taught so as they must be filled with moral virtues such as wisdom, courage, justice. These days, we see some students misbehaving with teachers, people go on strike burning buses, including in bad politics or doing other kinds of harms, thus deteriorating moral values. They are having just opposite qualities of these moral virtues such as they start believing in injustice, tyranny, or may be cowardness. A child gets to know and can easily decide what is right and what is wrong for him, learns to behave mannerly in a society, he understands his responsibilities through moral values.

Moral principles held the world together. So, there is a need of set of moral principles and values to be imparted in the children to make them a better and a responsible citizen.

Hi friends.

I am also somewhere in my mind is in support of the topic.

I just want to say that these values have become the things of the past. We all are focused upon money and fame.

No humanity, no love, no respect, no care. THESE ARE THE MOST FAMOUS WORDS IN OUR MIND DICTIONARY.

But the question is why we have just become like this, have forgotten our real culture, our ethics. And are blindly following what was never permitted in our culture.

Some of the animalistic things which can prove that. " yes we are not humans on this earth".

1. Honour killing (its really a shame for our elders our society. And is a prove for no moral value inside in their heart).

2. Rape (nowadays gang rapes are more popular. Boys have been muscular, and what would be better place for them to show their strength. And kill the victim mercilessly, enjoying the blood comes out of the body. This can't be human behavior. Hence a prove that we are animals. And is very much clear that animals have no moral values. ).

3. And the most famous is chain snatching, killing for money, cheating. And our elders said that they have not learnt such type of lessons to their kids. But the thing is even they have not got the time that they can spend with these young minds.

4. And the controversial one is WHEN THE PERSON ENTER INTO POLITICS, he is filling only his pockets, take bribe, DO SCAMS, do RIOTS. They have just one priority to have the MONEY only FOR EVEN THEIR HUNDREDTH GENERATION TO COME. I mean let that generation to do something by themselves. You need not to worry for them, they will be having same brain, 2 hands, 2 legs. And that would be enough. DO SOMETHING FOR WHATEVER YOU HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED. And if little bit humanity is left with you then bring all the money from swiss bank to our people.

QUES is from where we would be expecting moral values.

WE CAN ONLY READ THEM IN OUR BOOKS.

AND FOR WHATEVER IS HAPPENING WRONG IN THE SOCIETY SOMEWHERE OR THE OTHER ITS OUR ELDERS WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THESE DEEDS IN THE SOCIETY.

Supportive reasons are:

1. Discrimination between girl and boy. It gives an unfair advantage to them that they are the superior ones. And is having every right to molest, to rape, to kill.

Because they always feel women to be the materialistic things, so they use them proudly.

2. From these they have forgot to show respect to women.

3. No one can deny the fact that more than 90 percent crimes are being done by the SO CALLED MASCULINES of our society.

And the main reason behind is that somewhere or the other parents are lacking in.

Providing them VALUES, they only restrict their girls for every wrong and right.

Would that they have understood this fact than the crime rate would have decreased, and ultimately the MORALS AND VALUES WILL BE FOLLOWED BY EVERYONE.

I am not really saying that the boys are only behind every wrong thing. Girls have also forgot their culture, the way to show respect and many more.

So be an indian, live like an indian, don't show lackadaisical attitude towards everything.

Yes, according to me its true that moral values are day by day degenerating. Moral values are hidden and this is just the thing that our youth cannot see. Just for a once we should try to choose the path of moral values you will see your life becoming much easier than the complexity.

Moral values are good and positive attributes and at Positive moral values are important because they allow you to have an overall feeling of peace and joy. Moral values can give meaning and purpose to your life. You are able to direct your behavior towards beneficial and fulfilling activities.

When you live your life according to moral values that are based on honesty, compassion, courage, modesty, and forgiveness, then you can also form positive bonds with other people.

Yes moral and social values are degrading. We are so selfish now. We should bring the hidden morals up. The future, the students should be careful.

Its fact that the morale values in society are degrading.

In earlier days joints family system was there. Grandparents used to tell the stories of Ramayana and Mahabharata to children so they always followed them and understood the value of respect and truthfulness. But today parents don't have time for their son or daughter.

So today's youths learn everything from friends which is all incomplete values.

Morals and values among Indians today is definitely changing. Today the youth values the importance of speaking up rather than being silent onlookers to whatever goes on in the society. People are more aware of what's happening around them and are ready to act against them. It is also true that people today are more materialistic today but that is what comes out of the fierce competition and the necessity to make one's presence felt in today's world. Associating value to money is not altogether bad because money can also be used towards helping people and the development of the society. So, values are changing but not degrading.

First of all, what are morals and values? In my opinion, morals and values is the art of distinguishing right and wrong and having the courage to take the right path despite facing obstacles.

Such morals and values are not affected by late night partying, wearing western clothes etc. Rather, they are affected or formed by our thoughts, beliefs. Our family, friends, colleagues play a major role in shaping our thoughts and beliefs.

Yes, Moral and values are degrading.

The condition has become very worse in todays life. There is no trust between individuals. Competition and selfishness has increased even between siblings, friends and relatives. There is no sharing of happiness and sorrows. People feel happy to know about others sufferings.

All want to climb up the ladder pushing everyone down. Life was a lot better, people had good understanding when they had less money as in the olden days when other persons suffering was considered as your own suffering and people used to rejoice in others happiness. In the present world, it is exactly the opposite.

Moral values are really degrading in Indian youths. The recent cases of crimes and corruption are violent examples of this. To become a superpower at the cost of its moral culture and traditions is not at all justifiable.
